I can afford them... but do I need them?
This will be my first fixie.
I only have a 5k commute.
Streets here are ok.
My frame is crap anyway.
generally low cost build.
Go with the opensports then. They're solid rims, not too heavy, and very well priced. With the open pros you pay a bit extra, and save a little weight, is all.
The important thing IMHO is the eyelets. These make it easier for you to tension your spokes, and easier for the spokes to untwist themselves when you de-stress them.

Just post any more queries here.
