1) PVM 20 Spoke. I'd have to wait 8 weeks for these.

2) PVM 10Y-spoke wheel. In Stock...couple hundred $ less too.

The 20's look great, if you got the $$$$ and you can wait then get 'em...

If you are looking at saving a few and can't wait then get the Y's as long as you will always be happy with them....

The choice is yours.

When I was buying the wheels I originally wanted the marchesini wheels but due to, none in the country at the moment and an unknown eta I switched to the pvm's.

I think there are nicer wheels on the market, but if I haf to choose, I would go with the 10

just curious but do our stock rotors match up to the pvm wheels? curious because i have aftermarket rotors...
Yep... and I would take forged Magnesium, or Aluminum over billet. If you want the custom look then cool go cnc...

i'd go with the 20 spoke. they look good to me and not a lot of people have them so you would be different.

I'd say 10Y...how much $$$ by the way?

Damn, the 10Y blew the pants off the 20 spokes here huh?


Since we're talking about this, do you guys prefer the 10Y spoke PVM or Marchesini?
i am currently fighting the demon that tells me that i must order the magnesium marchesini's and everyday is a struggle.:cryin

also, my feeling is that if the marchesinis are good enough for factory yamaha they're ok for me, and they are actually cheaper than the pvm's, your thoughts?

The PVM's are more $$ then the Marchesini. The 10Y PVM is a few hundred more, and the 20 spoke is about $500 more.
