If anyone has a name or a link to somewhat deep aluminum clincher rims, would be appreciated.
If a little extra weight on the bike doesn't matter to you, and it's just about looks, why do you want to replace deep aluminum rims for different deep aluminum rims? It seems to me that you already have exactly what you're looking for.
