I was looking at these wheels and was wondering if any of you have used them? If so please give me your feedback on them, thanks

Yep, I got a set mid-way through last year. Put about 800 miles on 'em and never had to touch them. I've got Sun rims on all my bikes and love 'em. The hubs are not light, particularly when compared to other road-specific hubs (though the wheelset weight remains lower than many more expensive models). However, they're durable as heck, extremely good at sealing out the elements, easy to service, and make a real cool noise when freewheeling. I'm also a fan of not having proprietary hub tools or goofy spokes just for the sake of sexy looks-if I want my bike to be more aero I have to look at myself first.
Plus, the guys there are really cool. :D

I sure would. I've had no problems with them, and all the rest of the guys I've worked with and to whom I've sold Sun/Ringle products have never had an issue.
