My Benelli SEI project came wth a set of stainless spokes and I used them with freshly polished, alloy rims. They look stunning. I’ve seen what they cost, and not sure I would have spent that much....
For years I have been using $40 spoke sets from <vintagecb750.com> on my Honda projects and I must say they have held up well and look very good too. I guess it’s up to you......
