Iron Edge/Aus Kettlebell Rubber Weight Plates - Any good??

[bvg2099]

I was looking to buy some weight plates and in particular coloured ones if possible, i came across Kettlebells - Iron Edge Fitness Equipment - Train Smarter and they have a weight set of 157kg of Olympic Coloured Rubber Weights on there. I was wondering whether its good or bad that their plates dont have a metal ring where you put the barbell in. What are you experiences with their products? Cheers

I clicked the link, but it takes me to the KB page.

Do you mean bumper plates?

I think he's talking about these:

Iron Edge / Australian Kettlebells :: Weightlifting Equipment :: Weight Plates

oh sorry about that, yeah ^^ those ones. What do you guys think?

For that price, I'd buy bumper plates.

I have lots of rubber coated weight plates, but I pay like $2.80 a kg.
I wouldn't pay anymore than $3 for rubber coated steel.

Where are you located mate?

If you're in Sydney look at either the GymDirect or GymAndFitness websites

Any preferences on which you has better plates?

I think they both stock similar-ish plates.
GymDirect you'll get a 10% discount because you're a member on here
