Considering building a set of wheels with them as they're available for $37. Any experience with them?

I have a set of wheels built up with them. I haven't put many miles on them because the first freehub body I got from Shimano was defective. What do you want to know about them?

How good is the quality on them? I'm 160lbs so I don't imagine they're too light for me. Mostly just wondering how they compare to the Kinlins, H Son, BHS, etc. wide rims. Considering building them up on DT 350 straight pull hubs.

Quality is very good. No issues. I am running them tubeless also 32 hole, Ultegra hubs. I weigh 225# and they're holding up fine. I can't tell you how they compare to the other alloy rims because these are my training wheels. I spend the big $$ on the carbon stuff.

No interest in carbon. I'm wanting something lighter than my 105/Open Pro 32h training wheels. Also wanting to try wide rims but stay on a pretty tight budget.

look okay to me, but i wouldn't get them in flat black, IME, once flat paint of any kind gets dusty and dirty it will never look new again.
