It will look great on an SGM.

Brand and quality though varies a lot though. Make sure they're of good quality...

yeah if the quality isnt good it may cause the rim to bend really easy and that means you just wasted ur money on some unknown brand wheels

Those are cheap ebay wheels, i would be really careful i dont think they would be very durable. Im not tryin to flame you or anything, i love the design i just dont know if they are good quality.

I once bought rims from ebay, within weeks the coating started to chip off, the inside looked like it was rusting, it was just terrible, not to mentioned they weighed a million pounds.
