Try spokesmanwheels.co.uk

You could easily better the Prime wheels spec for that price and they will be handbuilt. They have stock items on ebay too.

I've had the same questions for a while, finally decided to go for the prime 50mm, went on to the website and they're sold out. but I think they would be the best option for that budget

Wiggle have a set with white decals (assuming you're referring to the link I posted).

yeah, but I'm looking to get the black ones. they say they should have stock in 2-4 weeks so fingers crossed.

Prime wheels from Wiggle always seem very good value for money.

+1 for Prime. And their alu wheels are good for the money too. Otherwise Hunt or Just Riding Along (JRA)
