Just so we are clear I really like these wheels as they are a cheap alternative clone for certain of the popular T5 Advans. I will dig deeper as well.

Question to you however as pictures are hard to tell, in size you chose is there (ANY) concave to the wheel?

There is a small amount of concave to the wheel design. I'll post more pics that will give you an idea of how much concave there is.

Great photos thanks so much! If I was more comfortable with spacers I'd buy now but gonna dig more on this. Yours looks great as is though. I'm pretty confident the weights they told I are boxed weights as there is not any more material in the then a rpf1 and those in similar size are under 20lbs. I'll find out!!!

I wanted to post an updated picture with these wheels at 25mm rear wheel spacers. Previous pictures were with no spacer up front, 20mm on rear. Since then I've decided to go with 15mm front and 25mm rear. Front wheels did not have spacers in this picture. I've installed 15mm for the front to make them as flush as the rear. Enjoy!

Debating if I want something new now. I love these wheels, but the TRD wheels are looking awesome.

Beautiful as is!

Questions if I may:

1. can you describe your setup? (what tire size are you running? any spacers?)
2. did you find out about the weigh the wheels? I wonder whether the weight I see in tire sites online, 23.1lbs, is boxed or not.
Thanks in advance!
