New Wheels Mounted

Hey everyone,
I drove near Homestead last nite to pick up my new wheels.
I'm gonna be honest and say I'm not in love with them. However, I really do like them and will be riding on them for a while. I used the Works about 1 1/2 yrs and I expect to do the same with these.
I was tired of the multispoke look of the Work T1S and these are much better spoke pattern, more to my liking. They fit really well and that's a big plus. I really don't want to get into the reasons I'm not in love with them. Let's just move on and enjoy. Here are the first of many pics to come.

i like the works more too.

i know what i don't like about these- that notch/bend at the middle of every spoke. it gives it a rough cut unfinished look.

I don't believe I could have gotten the forged Vossens for anything near the price of these. I do like the 1 piece Vossens a lot though.

Besides, too many people with Vossens.

Very astute!

Color matched painting the windows would fix that right up.
