Aluminum SSl style wheels

Has anyone used or seen the aluminum SSl style wheels from the Parts Place. I'm wondering about a couple of things:
Is the aluminum polished or dull?
Is the aluminum section cleared with any type of coating?
Is the center cap aluminum or steel (chrome) ?
Are the lug nuts any good or the cheap Chinese pieces?
Will the wheels clear aftermarket disc brakes?

They look good in the advertisement pics, and the price is very reasonable.
Including the shipping cost, they are $600.00
I know there seems to be a fair amount of complaints regarding The Parts Place, but I have never had a problem dealing with them.

I like the look of these wheels and they would be a good weight savings.
If they are made off shore I would have concerns as to there safety if they were a quality made piece made in the USA or Canada I would be in for a set.
