Default Hilabrand Replicas

I posted this in the wheels and tires section and then noticed that the traffic was practically non-exsistant. (so please don't move my thread - my administrator)

I ran across an add for a set of 4 Halibrand STYLE wheels. They are advertised as New, Never Used 16 Rims (see pic) for 300$. I love the style of the wheel, but I'm not familiar with Halibrand replicas. All I have found on the net suggests that the wheels sell new for over 1000$ a set if not alot more. Should I jump on these for my 67 coupe? Or should I be sceptical, maybe there are cheap knock-offs out there?

Thanks for the hit Andrew, just got off the phone with them and they don't carry wheels less than 17x8. I prefer the 15" rims, 16s would be fine too, but my rear diff is 1/2" wider than stock and 8" rims make things too close. SO, I am looking for 16x7s with about 4.25 to 4.5 backspacing.
