These are good rims for going wide for the Winter. I used them for several seasons tubeless and they performed great. I need to point out that they've taken some hits and one of the rims has a couple of cracks along the edge that could be an issue when setup tubeless in the future, although I never had any such difficulties. They'd definitely be fine if using tubes. Jim Vreeland has seen these rims and I imagine would give you his level of concern running them tubeless if asked.

Also, the rim without the cracks had a spoke nipple break-off inside of it. Due to the shape of the rim and being double-walled, it's unlikely that removing the nipple piece will ever be possible. This is of no functional concern, but it's possible to hear the nipple inside the rim when spun.

So, these rims have their flaws, but they'd cost $600+ with shipping for the pair if new. Weight = 650g each. I'm asking $200 for the pair. Can meet in the middle...I live in North Plainfield.

P.S.: See my other recent posting for some inexpensive hubs.

Happen to destroy my LB rim so I am in the market. I will probably just order another LB rim since a got a few miles out of it.

I think I'm gonna pass. I can't see spending the money on a second carbon wheelset just for winter tires.

I haven't seen these rims personally, but I will add for anyone that is nervous about buying a cracked rim, I have these exact rims and one has been cracked way worse for like 5000 miles now.
 
I have seen these rims in person and they are in very good shape.......my front rim has had a hole that you could stick a banana in and it still doesn't affect rideability
