150shot is infamous around these parts
I think they look pretty good. There are some decent 1 piece rims out there in a fair price range. I also think Victor Equipment has some in the same style and I know they are good quality.

You will deff feel a hit in performance.

My RH 19's were 28lb fr & 32lb rear, and I could tell a huge diff in handleing compared to my current Champion RG5's.
