Title: Any experience with wheels from Princeton Carbonworks?
Post by: kazuviking on September 16, 2026, 07:53:36 AM

These two rims popped up for me on ali and really tempted to replace my noname carbon rims with these just for the look factor. https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005012833482965.html

Authentic Princeton are cringe AF. Fake Princeton takes the cringe to such a level that my jaw and teeth hurt just thinking of it.
Mechanically / performance wise, there's absolutely no reason to buy them, they're just wheels.
Also, it's illegal to buy fakes like that.
And no, they're not authentic.
If you're a clerk in some office in Florida, and your dream is to be a dentist in Florida, then those wheels are for you. If not, please get something else.
