My comments from the other Eurmeister thread:

That said, either should be OK for normal street (or even mild track) use. The runout issues reported by Rota buyers is a larger issue in my mind. I'll be curious to hear the the runout specs on the Euromeisters once the first buyers start having tires mounted. But I really don't expect to hear many problems on that. The reality is that many of the Chinese wheel manufacturers do a very good job on that score.
