Very nice, but I'm not a "rivet" kinda guy for my wheels.

Why do all new wheel makers insist on putting rivets on their wheels? (Yes, I know about 2 or 3 piece wheels.. but still)

The rivets (to me) detract from the wheel. Makes it too busy.

Maybe I'm the only one that feels like that though. *shrug*

I too am not a big fan of the riveted kinds, I know the reason for having them and all with the two and three piece wheels, but when I think of new wheels in my future I play into factor how easy they will be to clean also as to how nice they look, I have had a set of Enki's with the rivots and they were a pain in the butt to clean around all those rivets, just my opinon, some pretty nice wheels shown here too.

I'd personally like to see less spokes, 5 or 6 max. :thumbsup:

Rivots and studs are too hard to clean around. I agree

I tried a set like this a few years back and it was just a pain cleaning!
