Be advised that with the big rings, one side is slightly bevelled, the other is flat. The bevelled side goes on the side towards the small ring with the flat side on the outside. If you get this wrong then the big ring can lift the chain off of the smaller ring as it is a tad too close.
Guess how I know this.

I hope you got the lucky 50%!

Are these chainrings any good or are they made of cheese? Current price at Spa seems ridiculously cheap.

And I presume they're compatible with an FSA chainset, right? (Assuming matching BCD, of course.)

No noticeable wear so far after about 3k miles in, so no worse than the stock Tiagra rings I had previously.

 

[smutchin]

Excellent. That sounds like a recommendation to me. Thanks!

The Stronglight Zircal ones are very very nice indeed if you want to splash a bit more cash. I've got the Dural on the Ribble and Zircal on the best bike.

I had the Dural rings on my commuter hack - they wore out really quickly.

 

[fossyant]

Can't say I've had any issues with the Durals. Just not as pretty as the zircal

Durals on previous bikes, covered some quite good mileage without showing excess wear...i'd have no hesitation recommending them for the money.
Edited to say...just looked at the link, difficult to believe you'd get better value for the money. I assume so cheap because of the slightly odd combo, 46/52.
