We are thinking about going to full Colsons next year but that would be really expensive since we would need to buy all our hubs as we can't machine them ourselves. If the kit wheels worked as well everyone is saying we may second guess that decision.
If you are using them in a live axle set up the hubs are trivial if you have a lathe and a broach (or can borrow them)

- A huge fan of Colson wheels
