Alternative to TT2's

I was trying to find the best price on a set of TT2's or similar and found these. I called my local tire shop and the quoted me $225 a wheel which sounds a little better than most of the prices I have seen on the TT wheels. I have a set of Eagle's now but it's time for a change. Anyone else tried these wheels?

If I get this wrong, someone please beat me to a pulp because I'd hate to give out bad information...

according to my tire & wheel guy, cosmetically they are the same, except they're not constructed the same way, nor are they as durable.

I wasn't aware of the durability issues so I'm glad you brought that up. If that is in fact the case, I will spend the extra to make them last.
