Default To use or not to use Kosei K1 TS for Daily Driver

First off, I want some orange wheels. Konig Kolors Very Orange are discontinued and I cant find them used. Speedmaster sm-O46 orange wheels only come in 15x6.5 (I want 15x7) and Gramlights 57cf are too expensive.

The Kosei K1 TS that I found are cheap(150 per) and lightweight cast(around12lbs). The pizzeria I deliver for is probably willing to buy me some wheels. They just need to be orange.

How well will these wheels hold up? Anybody run these wheels on a DD? I live in a city where there arent many potholes but of course it has its share.

I would love some input especially from anyone who rides on these. Thanks

Haha, I wish. By the way, if anyone has some for sale hit me up. Konig kolors very orange also tickle my fancy if anyone has some used ones
