I hadn't heard of them before. Quality wise I think they'd be OK, most modern wheels are no matter where they're manufactured and they have to meet Aust Standards to be sold here.
If the prices are OK and you like the style and don't mind the weight I'd say why not.

If you like the first two on your page you might want to look at the P1 racing wheels, the first two look very similar. They are very light(unsprung rotational weight), look good(chicks), are reasonably priced(wallet), and people use them for racing(fun).
Depending on what you want I guess the prices depend as well.

Here is a AU site with some prices, see left side menu etc.
Seems you can pick up a set from $1800, but prices go up depending on the model etc.
But if you want a really good price try Paul Donnelan:

He gave me the best deal on my new wheels.

My experience:
The last wheels I got were cheap and apart from the extra weight, the finish started chipping and coming off after 1 year! And they started looking really bad.
Now I personally realise the importance of buying good wheels and am happy to pay top dollar for quality. BUT this is not necessary to get good wheels, there are lower priced good wheels out there. You just have to make sure you find them, otherwise you could seriously be considering buying new wheels again in 1-2years because they are falling apart.
Just my experience
