Difference between Gram Lights 57s and Gram Lights 57 Pro?

What is the difference between the two wheels? I notice more threads with pics of the 57S Pro then the 57s which is what tire rack sells.

http://www.tirerack.com/wheels/Wheel...Bronze+Painted

Is there any difference between the two wheels?


Anyone know where I can get em cheaper?

Well I guess I was initially wanting to make sure there wasnt anything that made them loook different from each other, but i looked them up and found that they are somewhat different. Nonetheless I want to go with the 57s in bronze.

Anyone know where to get a set at a good price?

Im looking for the ones that Ive shown that tirerack sells...but between the 3 color options for the 18x8.5 in 57S, the bronze seem to have a different spoke design.

Maybe Im just seeing things though. When Im on tirerack's website and click on the different colors, the silver and gold seem to have a different spoke design then the bronze.

Can anyone else confirm by going to the tirerack link i've provided to the rims?

i see what you are talking about. the bronze pic has a different offset than the other pictures giving it a more concave look
