Default Thumbs UP or DOWN on these wheels?

I've had my factory wheels powder coated for some time, and looking at getting something that will REALLY STAND OUT! I'm kind of undecided on what kind to get. I dont want to get Vossen like everyone else seems to have on this forum. I like the Vossen wheels, but too many people have them.

What I want to know is what does everyone think about these wheels? Im not going to spend 7K on a set of wheels that people think are terrible.

AND,,, I CARE WHAT PEOPLE THINK SO DON'T ASK!!!

They would be good if they didn't have that pattern on the 5 spokes. Can you get them without the pattern? If so, they will look good. Don't no about the pimp my ride comment. Those are too expensive for pimp my ride. Vossen might fit that criterion. Just playing, Lol.

Looks like they went crazy with the bedazzler on the face of the spokes...I think these would cheapen the look of the LS460. They remind me of the wheels I see here in Atlanta when the wheels cost more than the car they are on
