This is just personal opinion, but I hate it when wheels get their "dish" from the spokes taking a 90 degree bend straight into the wheel. And it also makes me wonder what's going on structurally with that type of wheel. Not saying it will or will not break under more or less duress than any other wheel. But this picture just doesn't give me the warm fuzzy feeling when i think about it being mounted to a car. The longer the "spoke" goes into the barrel the more leverage is put on that bend in the spoke, so yeah you get more "lip" or "dish" but at what cost to strength.

I was wondering. the Godspeed Omegas. Are they not just replicas of the TSW Thruxtons? I found two sets around here with a staggered setup of 19s. A tire combo for like 400ish/used.

They do look a lot like the TSW Thruxtons. I was wondering the same thing.
