Default Hobby vs Pro

what is the differents on these wheels?

the front : ( This wheel was shot with a Hobby gun )


The Rear : ( This wheel was shot with a pro gun )


The polish was done after all the powder was cured....

They look the same but can you tell the hobby from Pro?

i tryed to set the pro at about the same kv as the hobby and shoot it as i would any other part... the hobby gun i feel you got more control seeing how it is lighter but the more kv you got the better the Coverage.

All i can say is they look good on the bike

Edit: The Polish was done by hand they are not chrome plated ...
