Default Aftermarket Wheel?

Anybody ever used or know of anyone that has used an aftermarket wheel like the one in the link below?

3.5x17 Aftermarket New Alloy Front Wheel Rim Honda CBR 600 95 96 97 98 Black | eBay


Can't seem to find one anywhere, especially at a reasonable price.

Im pretty sure ftermarket wheels for our bikes are RARE! as in I have only seen them twice in the wild, both already on full bikes being sold or else I would have jumped on them.

Well it says its for an f3 and it looks exactly right. I was just wondering if anybody here had any knowledge or experience about the quality/possible fitment issues.

I saw several on E-bay. I also saw some used wheels (front and rear). I hesitated making a bid because I have the same reservations you have. It would be nice to have a spare set of wheels for track days. If you buy the wheel, let us know how it works out. If I buy one, I'll post my impressions.

for well under the price of one aftermarket one of unknown quality you could get a full set of used ones with rotors and all, much less to swap out that way when getting ready for the track.

The only front wheels I see for less than 300 bones are bent. Not sure where you're getting a full set of good wheels for less than that, but every time something affordable pops up on craigslist or ebay its gone within minutes of being posted.
