So yeah…where is this bridge?
They shipped each plate individually. The package was destroyed on some plates but my plates were unharmed. They came in with a strong plastic smell. I put them in my bath tub with soap/water/vinegar for 2 days. That eliminated 90% of the smell. After 1-2 weeks the smell is pretty gone.
I tried to dry one of the plates with a towel after washing and the writing came off, so let them dry naturally then wipe the soap with paper towel or something.
But as a weight set, they are great. I don't do Olympics lifts, the most stress they go through is likely during my deadlift and they feel solid. Definitely don't use the 10s on their own. If you're just starting or warming up and need to deadlift 65, put the j-hooks on the lowest position in your rack.

I would not buy the set with the bar though, as they have other versions, that will work just as well, for less money.
Returned them asap
The Tru Grit plates from Walmart deal worked fine on my fancy bar.
If you have a cheaper bar/chrome bar, these should be fine.

I like bumpers for 3 reasons. Their sound, much quieter. I can drop them if I need to without too much worry about the weights. Third reason is all the weights are the same size which is important for good form.
And why 55lb plates?
I just dont know if i have much room to store this. Unless i decide to keep it in my garage for doing deadlifts outside instead of my basement gym
The bumper bit makes more sense.
