I may yet spring for a set of Vintage.

I own 8 Trigos. I bought the first 4 in 1994 for $1,900.00. One of those leaked a pound of air a day. I found a pinhole in the middle of the rim after submerging the tire/wheel in water. I dismounted the tire and covered the hole with a dab of epoxy. It hasn't leaked since. I now use use these wheels on the track because they do show the years of use.
I bought the next 4 wheels about 2 years ago for just $995.00, new, during a sale period. These were fresh castings. When they arrived, each had visible voids in the area of the knock-off.
I probably won't need any more wheels. If I do, they'll be Vintage units.
