While they will be stronger as they have more ribs than kyosho, they are made from the same material (ABS).
One of the main differentiators is that these rims are the only offering for realistic looking rims on the market. Unless you like dish rims then you'd not care about looks. Kyosho stopped producing rims a while ago (like 4 years ago) and are not going to produce anymore. If you can get a set, consider yourself lucky.
The other thing is that nobody has ever made offset rims for F1. We ran 3D printed rims for a while testing the concept and it works.

Nice to see. is the offset measurement of 0mm equivalent to the stock Kyosho wheel, or is it a true 0mm offset where the inside of the inner bearing is flush with the inner edge of the wheel?
The standard Kyosho wheels have roughly negative 3mm offset, so a true 0mm wheel would increase the track width by roughly 6mm.
Love seeing all the new stuff
