Is it me or is it that they're almost identical
except the f10s have a step lip and the r10s have a striaght lip?
The spokes are a bit thicker on the r10s too.
and... lastly. theres more concavity on the f10s.
Otherwise, it is almost the same!
F10's are at like 1/3 of the price tag of the r10s though.

The VIP VR05 is closer in appearance.
Quality-wise, the R10s are made on an 8000 ton press so they are extremely strong. Only a few manufacturers use an 8000 ton press, most others use 5000-6000 ton presses.

I personally like the r10's more as I'm not a huge fan of the step lip.
