FWIW, I have DT SWISS M1700 25mm (with the 36T star ratchet) on my MTB and they are absolutely bomb-proof. In the past I haven't automatically thought about DT Swiss for my road wheels, but after my experience on MTB I would definitely not count them out in the future.

I think the main difference between your DT Swiss and the ones I was looking at, are that yours are an aluminum braking surface whereas the 38's are a carbon braking surface. But good to know your DT Swiss wheels are holding up well
