Fast shipping with plates packaged with obvious TLC. Not much to say about the product other than they were just as described.

I purchased these after reading a review on Garage Gym Reviews. These plates are very well made & accurate. Best of all, they will not damage the finish of my bar. I would love to have a set of Alpha plates if shipping to Hawaii wasn't so expensive.

These are awesome change plates! I definitely did a lot of research, and I am very happy I spent the money on these!! I'm very pleased with these and will more than likely be ordering more in the future.

These are of great quality. They fit snug on the bar, as to not cause damage during lifts. I spent a lot of time researching to figure out which company produced the best quality 2.5/5lb plates for the cost. Vulcan was the best choice in my opinion. I just wished they had .125 lbs as well.

While these cost a lot compared to iron plates, they cost less than any other manufacturer's rubber coated change plate and are better. I bought these because my first weightlifting bar's selves are downright ugly after taking the abuse of loose fitting iron plates. No functional loss, and this point isn't to look good, but it is a bonus - especially now that I'm upgrading to an Elieko bar. But these do have three functional advantages over iron change plates: they make WAY less noise when the bar is dropped, they fit really well so they don't move around much if you put them outside the collar (yes, I'm one of the two weightlifters who uses collars), and they are VERY accurate in weight. Vulcan claims .5% potential variation. That's 0.0125 for a 2.5lbs plate and 0.025 for a 5lbs plate. All my plates came out to be 0.01lbs light. Let me elaborate on this weight issue. If you're like me, you've spent a lot of money on bumpers that claim to be within grams of stated weight. I weigh all my plates. All my bumpers are all within 10 grams - regardless of stated weight. Yet I was using iron change plates. I weighted them - my 2.5s were 2.98 and 2.89lbs. My 5s were 5.25 and 5.2lbs. The up-side, I'm stronger than I thought, The down-side is obvious. With these plates, I know exactly what's on the bar. I like that.

Got a new Ohio bar and didn't want to ding it up right away, these work great along with whatever bumpers you have.

I'm new to weight lifting so I have nothing to compare these to. So far they seem to be handy, durable, and stay in place.

After doing a lot of research, I discovered pretty much everyone agrees that Vulcan and Rogue's change plates are the best. I wasn't disappointed. Quality product and cheaper than the Rogue plates.
