Custom Keycaps - WASD vs. Max Keyboard

[capnyank]

Hi all! I'm looking at getting my first set of custom keycaps to mod my CM Storm Quickfire Rapid and would like to get your thoughts. I'd like to get a custom color full set (87 key) at $50 or less. Both Max and WASD have some good color options but I'm not really sure of the quality. I've read in some of the reviews that Max's keys are somewhat thin ABS so I'm thinking of skipping them for WASD.

Otherwise, do you have any other recommendations for a full set with cool colors at less than $50 that's good quality? I'm not really looking at an all one color set and I don't want to have to piecemeal single keys or smaller sets together.

Thanks!

I would just get Gateron, Leopold, or Vortex. They're going to be way thicker/higher quality.

Thanks for the suggestion - any recommendation on where I can purchase these?

^   I have both of these  keysets and they're very nice thick PBT.

Gaterons I think you'll need to get secondhand or through a proxy buyer.

I believe the caps labeled "thick" on geekkeys are 1.5mm thick, which is the standard for quality caps, but I've never used them so I can't attest to their feel. http://www.geekkeys.com/keysets/

I ended up ordering the Vortex set on Amazon for $34.99. Thanks!

They're a good set, I use them on my v2 at work.
