They look pretty smart, maybe look better with a bit more drop.
How cheap is cheap?

Yeah front is about as low as it'll go without problems, rear was literally just dropped off the jack but is wound up really high just to get clearance. He want £200 for them, I know he paid £500 a while back

For that money you cant go wrong
Have a play with the suspension run them for a while and can always sell them on and easily make your money back.

I'm not 100% on the rx2's to be honest.....never really liked loads of spokes on alloys And I love a a bit of rimage!! gonna get the rx2's refurbed then reassess I think.
