Wolber Wheels

I have picked up a 1988 Schwinn Voyaguer to do some self contained short touring with this summer. It has Wolber Model 58 wheels, 36 (front) and 40 (rear) spokes with eyelets and Mallard hubs. Anyone had experience with these wheels, wonder if I should replace them with something better.
Thanks,
Keith

are they 700c? if so keep them. if not use for spare or sell them. do they say super champion on them? if so they are bombproof, if not, they are just ok.

They are 27 in. and do say Super Champion. They have the Schwinn Passage tires (I suspect original).
Thanks a lot!

Super Champion and Wolber/Super Champion rims are collectable.

Really just certain models or all of them? Are tubulars specifically Wolber Super Champion Aspins?
