i had ordered the same rims again but they sent me these instead. i really didnt want to wait another 2 weeks to get another set so i put these on. im still undecided if i want them or if i should sell them. sometime they look good to me, sometimes they dont. ill give it a few more days to see if i like them or i might sell them.

+1 on the monarchs

On a side note, why is it that owners of monarch's never seem to keep them?

I actually liked the euro63. But I heard that the euro63 were pretty soft, and tended to bend easy.

New wheels look nice especially the lip on the rear wheels What tires did you go for, and what sizes?

Could be that the new wheels are probably lighter, and the tires grip better?
