I'm in the Market for some stealth looking wheels for my bike. The Mavic r-sys slr wheels are great but a little exepensive. So what other options, if any, are there?

Another vote for Carbonzone. I have nothing but praise for my wheels and the service I received.Trying Is The First Step Towards Failure

Some Dark Label Fulcrum Zeros would look sweet on that Wilier of yours.0

The Black version of the FFWD wheels is pretty stealthy looking.0 -

Handbuilts - I got some nice Kinlin XR300 rims the other day from http://www.dcrwheels.co.uk/ I provided hubs, but you could get them built up with black laser spokes and black novatech hubs and they would be nice, light and a bit aero too.
As a cheap option the planet x model b's are pretty stealth too.http://www.georgesfoundation.org

Yeah - sorry, that's kind of what I meant. Stealthy as in "all black" with a slight aero profile.http://www.georgesfoundation.org

I have r-sys premium - nice ride but always a nagging doubt in the back of my mind that those carbon spokes are neither aerodynamic nor totally stable re temptation to explode when the notion takes them!!
I have an older model cento uno and have to say that I still think the absolutely non-stealth fulcrum zeros with aero red spokes look ab-fab! Certainly not discrete...
Failing that, what could be more discrete than a pair of zipp 303's or, if funds permit, a pair of Lightweights. Failing that, if tubs aren't a problem, de-stickered Campag Bora II's or Mavic Ultimate Carbones could be pretty special.
