No connection. Looks like a snatch up price.

Not a wheel expert here. I see a set of these offered on many forum priced at over $1500. Some up to $2500. So why is this not a good price? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

Neither good nor bad, they will need refinishing!
I am buying a single wheel from Brad Mayeur in a couple of weeks (to get rid of a Riviera spare that doesn't match), so if I get a chance, I'll weigh in with a picture and a price. My current set is polished so the paint condition doesn't matter as much.

Those that go for $2500 a set are the magnesium 5-lug Gas Burners. Aluminum 4-lug Baby Burners usually go for about $100 a wheel.

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) I just sold a nice set of 5 for $125/ea and felt it was a fair price.

Got a set of 5 two years ago for $350 and they had almost new tires. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) Big improvement over my steelies.
