They look real good for a first time! I know just from people telling me, that its a lot of hours to make them beautiful.

nice job! the fat 5 rims are good for the first timer, flat surface, no lip, and only 5 spokes :thumb:

I think I want to try a set

you will shoot yourself after you get one HX rim done and have 3 to go... I think I had about 40+ hrs into my set of HX's. a good winter project though!
