Pleased with them so far, although admittedly I've only put about 25 miles on them as yet. Initial impressions are that they are freakin huge, width wise. Very comfortable, also spin up quick despite being a bit heavier than I'd anticipated. Almost exactly 2000g with track nuts and rim tape on. Little disappointed in that if I'm honest as my calculations said they'd be 1750g. Maybe it was just my maths or the scales I'm using are inaccurate. Still over 300g lighter than the Miche Xpress set they're replacing.
Seems to me that with the same tyres they offer a bit more grip but yet to really test that. Will report back after I've done some more miles. Brake track and finishing in general is very good. Couldn't be happier.
Oh and @alemac1, no customs charges which was a nice bonus, despite having them delivered to my home address. Delivery was by courier not post office so I don't know if that made any difference or whether it was just luck of the draw.

@vunugu Report back, it will be interesting to see if there is consistency. I hope yours come up decent.
@alemac1 I was charged 20% of what I paid for the wheels. Not the low amount Yoeleo put on the box. Customs basically valued them correctly. The total was 70 odd quid. The 20% tax and then the infamous £13.50 or whatever it is 'handling fee'
I've actually got zero problem paying duty if I can pay it upfront or something. The infuriating thing is looking at your EPS tracking number and for ages all seems almost there, and then you find out it has been at Kings Cross parcel force for 11 days 'awaiting payment'.
