Are all steel wheels created equal?

So I've run the Black Rock wheels before with success. However, I sort of want the glossy black finish this time around. So I'm looking at Cragar, ProComp, and American Racing.

On 4WD.com, for instance, the 15x7 ProCrap wheels are $56 bucks. The exact same size in the American Racing brand is $84 bucks. WTF?

I thought a steel wheel was a steel wheel. Am I missing something?

All of those are made by Unique Steel except fopr American Racing(as far as I know),your paying more for the name and yes Black Rock steel wheels are made by Unique Steel.Go to Discount Tires and get the Unique Steel name for cheaper then more well known names.
