I totally agree but then cyclamen = hotness. Pretty hard to make it look bad

They look fine but the 7.5 inch width is lame, hence the C5 S6 Avus being so desired.

Default Agree, but those are pretty tough to find, IME.

And besides, 235mm rubber is plenty wide enough for a DD, and 10mm spacers help out with the offset to fill in the fenders. THey may be a little on the narrow side, but they're not THAT lame. ;-P

Default Wait until you see another angle. The offset sucks

OK, maybe lame was a bit strong........but it's known that women prefer 8 over 7.5". 8^P

With a good rubber, they couldn't tell the difference...that .5" is relatively moot.

Default Yup. I waited for months for another set to come up for sale.

And the previous set was $800, *before* shipping (from the E. coast). Without tires.
