Australia Who has Bridge Spokes?

Hi All,
Who out there has bridge spoke wheels on '07 MCS? Are you happy with them?

I have a Lightning Blue MCS heading down under with white Bridge spokes.....haven't seen them in the flesh yet or in any decent photos, so I'm keen/anxious to see a set.

I like bridge spokes. My faves on the S are obviously flame spokes, but in 2nd are the S winders. I really do like them, as I always loved the X Lite std S wheels on the R53. Don't see many S's with 16s on though, as most people tick the Chili Pack box.

Thanks for the link Interludio44...there some nice shots there...I'm feeling happier about my choice now.

Hey Ollie, couldn't agree more about the S-lite's for the R53. If I ever get uncomfortable with the 16"s and want to go for some 17"s then the S-lites will be an automatic inclusion on my shortlist.

I have Bridgespokes...

I do like the look, and they seem like great quality wheels. But I want some summertime wheels with sticky tires. Also, whoever balanced mine, ruined them by clamping the tire weights to the outside rim. Sad, they should have been balanced using weights glued to the inside. I think the wheels do look sharp though!

Bridgespokes.

Looks good in picture....but not so good in person.
Frankly, I haven't seen a MCS with 16" yet.
