Default g spiders. good choice ?

just a follow up of my sad tale of having to change out my original rims. Just curious what fellow IS owners think of lexus g spiders. Good ? bad ? indifferent ? Would like to know what you think.

I like the g-spiders best out of all the rims ever offered for the IS.

I've had 'em for three years on my car. Very happy with them. They look good and so far have excellent durability.

I had them on my sedan and loved them, and even took them off to put them on my vert.

Pics just don't do them justice. I don't think you'll be disappointed.
