my first ever set of alloy wheels back in 1996 were 15" tri-spokes..... loved it!
i'd had them on my 8 if the Advan tri-spokes comes in 20's (i know the biggest they have is 19's)
so i settled with my next fave design, ie. 5 spokes

/have had mesh wheels before, i do like them but they are a f'ing pain in the back side to wash/clean (they are my #3 choice though...)

These look nice, especially on the FD.

Is there a weight savings compared to the stock rims?

my only complaint about the rims, even though they look great... is that theyre cast and not forged... a lil too expensive for just cast wheels
