Those wheels were barely introduced not too long ago. approx. 3-4mo ago so if there are ppl who are using them it would only be a few.

They look to be some well built wheels.

For boosted applications I guess those 2 brands would not matter... But for N/A you want the lightest wheels possible.... Spin Werks wheels are the lightest around.

I know what their site says.. But when I put my wheels on my UPS scale at my shop, it said 6 3/4lbs. They both weighed that.
