I recently purchased a pair of BTLOS 45mm deep clincher carbon wheels and put on 700x30 Vittoria Corsa tires on my 2014 Trek Madone and love it! The 30mm wide tires definitely clears.

When I ordered the wheels it was supposed to weigh 1325g +/- 25g. When I got the wheels, they each had a tag with the weight. My front wheel weighed a whopping 576g and the rear 729g for a total of 1305g?! So far, the wheels has held up to my 200lb weight, but with all the rain we’ve been having I probably have less than 500 miles on the wheels. Nevertheless I can feel the difference and highly recommend them especially when they cost under $750 shipped!

Of course, YMMV!

Good Luck!
