They're only 18's, that's what I wanted that style of wheel, the machined spokes make them look much larger . The spokes themselves measure 19.5" from one end to the end of the opposing spoke.

Is the carbon fiber really worth the extra $$?

I think carbon fiber would look pretty sharp. How much is the price difference?
