Rotiform NUE 3 piece was the 1st time I saw that design. They eventually made a cheaper 1 piece cast version, and now varrstoen also makes it.

I thought Rotiform was a relatively new start up company (similar to the one I linked below)? Never thought they would be considered an "authentic" wheel company.

I'd love something like these on an SC, but they are pricy...

Rotiform has been around for less than 10 years, but I think they were acquired by MHT wheels around the same time CCW got acquired by weld.

Between the 2, I'd choose a 5 spoke

The five spoke rims hands down. They're thick enough and that configuration is timeless.
