chachi, as nice as the Ellegis foams are, the 5 spoke yellow rim is brittle, I used it a lot last year, but every now and then I would have a wheel that would break, or a front wheel that would get wobbely after some wall rubbing. The solution is: The Ellegi tire on the white dish rim. Since I switched to the dish rims, I have not had any more rims break or become wobbely. Same foam, better rim. The best aprt is, if you buy then on-line, the dish rim is usually less money too.
