Hello everyone,
I ordered a set of Elitewheels EDGE during Black Friday Week. According to the AliX Chat they only produce the Rims with decals, as I originally wanted a blank rim :-\
Has anyone had a recent experience that was similar/contrary? For future buyers this might be interesting, to either order directly from their manufacturer or choose another company if you want clean wheels
-
Yes, decals only. if you want black wheel with same spec you need to contact Yuanan.

I expressed my intention to buy via Ali and was also told that it wouldn't work without a logo. I didn't get in touch for a few days. Suddenly it was possible without the logo.
-
My buddy awhile back was able to order ENT Elite Wheels with no decals. Maybe they've gotten rid of that option.

don t be shy, be proud to be the elite

Just take the decals off.

They are under clearcoat. I looked into this as well when ordering and they told me 'no decal' was not an option. On a good note I have thrashed the wheels quite well off road. A little bit of off road jumping and countless rocks hitting them and only a couple noticeable nicks in the sides and still very true. They are 50mm deep ENT with 35mm gravelking ss tires and I am 100 KG.

that was my conclusion as well when i looked into it. Elite tends to make wheels that are too narrow, too, but Yuanan has more modern, wider rims, so it's a win win. Although if you time your purchase well, you might pay less via Alix and their discounts. I never found the exact spec i wanted on Alix, always bought direct from OEMs.
