Heavy Chinese wheels. Stock wheels are much better.

I have a set of DNA wheels black on black on my SH CR500AF. I only have about 5 rides on them but they have held up great. Rear spokes haven't loosened like most yet.

I did have a problem where the sprocket bolts backed out but that was because there were no washers under the lock nuts.

I like them so far and would recommend them to anyone.

I ve heard mix reviews on the DNA wheels, i m not taken a chance, heard some guys at track saying their wheels exploded, maybe ridererror (not maintaining spokes etc) I have excel and talon wheel setupIMO the best setup(not cheap) but i need all the help i can get LOL!

RAD wheels are good. Saw some on some PC bikes they made for people that didn't spec them, JP Montoyas bike for one. I have 0 experience with them, so my opinion is just that.
I have a set of Haan wheels that have held up for years with no issues at all. All said, I would stick with stock and have TCR get rid of the seams and rebuild them.

I bought a set last fall. I noticed right away that they are heavier than stock. I was just using them as practice rims and they held up pretty well but then I pancaked the rear one this spring. That being said, I think I'd spend the few hundred dollars more for a good set.

I would avoid the DNA wheels!

Mine are about 2 years old. They are black with red hubs on a Honda 450. The front rim (only the front, back is still fine) has faded horribly. Looks gold now. They won't warranty them If you want your bike to look good (and you do or you wouldn't be looking at wheel sets) don't buy DNA. Bearings are garbage also. Not a good experience for me.
