The 5-spoke ones are more appealing. I didn't notice that they were 5-spoke though. The first thing I noticed is that the fins curve in more (in two dimentions). They curve in more towards the back of the wheel (since they're deep dish) and they also curve in more going from the center of the rim to the outside. Makes the design more complicated and it almost feels like it's not symmetrical. That's a good thing though since rims that look too symmetrical are gross IMO. Of course, any rim is symmetrical in relation to some pie slice. It's just that... Aw, nevermind. Get what I'm saying?

I've got the Fighter's on my ride. They curve of the spokes near the rim dosn't quite look like the above picture (5 lug version). Even the detail picture of the rim in my Member's Rides Page isn't even that great of a picture. (The magazine ad pics don't look that good either.). IMO, these wheels look great in person, but I'm slightly biased [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/IMG]
As far as I know, I'm the only one on this message board with the Fighter's.
