7.5" wide +40's will be terrible on the bearings, *especially* on the track. For the same money, I'd buy some used Rotas which would be .5" wider, the correct offset, fit more brakes, and not on eBay. At least that's the way I'd go if I was looking for "a good bridge to save up for forgies or RPF1s". Hell, I'd just leave the $400 in the bank, until it was $1000 and skip the intermediated wheels... buying wheels at any price is not "saving up" for anything.
