HP Lightning/Evo wheels...
I may have a chance to pick up a set of these. Anyone have feedback on their quality? How do they compare to say, the similar RPM 505 wheel?
thanks in advance....

One member pointed out a while ago how the center piece on the RPM wheel (the spokes) has a more rounded shape to it, rounded outwards as opposed to a more flat faced design of the center piece on the HP wheel.
I wish someone can chime in here that has seen both wheels in person. Maybe it's just the pics I'm looking at?

I miss my HPs, got nothing but compliments on them. I was running th 19" hypersilvers. The only quab I had was the vibration thru the drivetrain, I would literally watch my m6 shifter bounce up and down while driving. These are hub-centric, but not very snug. I picked-up a set up hub-centric rings to make them fit better.
What size are you getting? Are they staggered? IMO,I think these have a nice spoke/web design over the RPMs...if I had gotten the Black HPs, I would probably still have them today.

Thanks for the feedback guys. These are 19" hypersilvers. I like the look, just want to be sure they don't have balance issues, or quality issues, etc...
