Default Sport Max Wheels question

I am looking for rims for my G35.
I came across the Sport Max 962 wheels
19x8.5 35 offset
19x9.5 35 offset

Anyone know if these wheels are any good? Quality?
Thanks!

I have a set of gold 962's 19's with 275/40/19 rears, and 245/35/19 fronts... it's a high offset, but it's fine. If you have Brembos, they'll totally clear. I like them alot. That's the price I want to pay for everyday driving rims and still look good. I do 130 miles round trip everyday. I don't want to worry about expensive rims getting all jacked up from that kind of daily exposure from West Covina to Oxnard. If I had another set of rims....say, Volks...you know they'd be on my Z... but, I'd worry like hell over them.
All-n-All, I'm happy with them. hope that helps.

I have some nice RH R5 wheels on my Z, but it's my weekend car so i am not worried about messing up the wheels.
But since my G35 is my daily driver, I didn't want to spend as much money on wheels/tires as I did for the Z.
So I saw these wheels and for the price, they look like a decent wheel.
The G35 is black so I was going to go with the gun metal color.
Thanks for the pic, can you also post pics from the sides so I can see how flush they are with the fenders?
Thanks!
