Something else worth mentioning about these wheels. Mine are 19" reverse lip. In heavy rain I have no problems with vibration over 70mph. I used to run Kinesis K28R 18" reverse lip wheels which prodcued significant vibration at 70mph in the rain. I have read on this forum that some have had similar experiences with HRE reverse lip wheels. I am not saying one wheel is better than the other, so don't start a flame war. I just thought it is interesting that the Work wheels do not have this problem in the rain. The theory is that water collects inside the rim between the "humps" and throws the wheel off balance. The Work wheel seems to have less of a hump...that is the only explanation I can think of that makes the difference.
