What's to say? ----- They're rims. Built well they make a good wheel. Built poorly they're trash.
BITD some models were pretty popular, and I built a fair number of wheels with them, especially some of their light aero tubular road and track rims, which called for a delicate touch.
The best indicators to how a rim will build are weight, cross section, and the quality of the joint. Going back to before machined sidewalls Arayas compared fairly well with comparably light rims, but except for a few models never had the cool factor of their European counterparts.
