Hi. I'm about to buy a pair of these Elite Superlight whells, promo ends at 28 march on ALiexpress. 65mm deep (weight 1495gr.), ceramic bearings, tubeless, inner width 21 outer width 28, shimano 11v.)

1 - Can some one tell me whats the shape of these rims - U shape, V shape or mixed UV shape?

2 - They come with Pillar's Wing 20 spokes, are they aerodynamic?

3 - I'm from Portugal, what delivery options should i select to avoid VAT? I road some coments but i'm still a bit confused. I guess i shoul select "Sellers Shiping method" (more 75,98€)

This is lots of questions =) Would apreciate your coments! Thanks in advance

Thank you RoadieMKD for reply.

I've contacted Elitewheels via Aliexpress app and they said if i use "Sellers Shiping method" (pay more 75,98€) then i will not pay VAT and also the delivery is faster. Yes, i have a discount code that will save 120$ on orders over 599$, so in total i'll pay 505,3$ for this 65mm wheelset (aniversary discont sale included).

About tires.. Rear i use 28mm tire, in front i have 25mm, continental gp5000 (not tubeless, i'll use RideNow TPU superlight innertubes). This Elite Edge rim width is 28mm, can i use my 25mm tire on this rim with no problems?

Does anyone use rim strips with this wheelset? I really struggle to choose proper width. The specs say the wheels have inner width of 21mm. I bought and installed Ritchey 17mm rim strips thinking covering just the middle bent area will be enough as one only really need to cover the holes for nipples. But now thanks to that bending the strip sticks out a little and I am affraid it's sharp edges may damage inner tubes and cause flats. Maybe I should buy wider strips but how wide exactly? I don't want them to get in the way with the tyre beads.
