Chrome Rims on my IP Coupe.Does it look good?

I have an interesting Ebay Auction on which I wanna bid too.But Im not sure if chrome rims will look that good on a IP Coupe.
Heres the link:

What do you think about these ones for my G.
Maybe someone has some pictures with any chrome rims on a Ivory Pearl Coupe.

hmm good question.I think Im not looking for any special style.I only want to know from people who like chrome rims if it also looks good on a white car.Maybe someone has some pics for me which help me to decide.

thanks to all for your opinions I will not buy these HP Design wheels.Today I think I did a really good deal.I found someone that buys my OEM Factory rims for a really good price (its hard to find someone out there in germany because there are only a few G35 drivers).For exchange I ordered today 4 Dotz Shuriken rims in a crazy gold finish.They are very cheap for me because my father works at a Dotz store.
The only thing is that the dimensions are not the best.They are 8x19" with 50 Offset but with my 30mm spacers in the rear and 25mm in the front maybe they will go out enough for me.The rims will arrive on Tuesday and I can mount my oem tires on it.
Next year when I have enough money together I will buy some 20" Work Varianza wheels for my G.
For about one year the Dotz rims will look good on my IP G.Or what do you guys think about them??
Pictures will follow next week.

Chrome wheels or a chrome finish like SBC/RMC etc... looks great. As for that particular wheel, it's disgusting. Oh, and it's from HP Racing...lame.
