Niiice. Looks like it has late model (Prolink) wheels. The silver was only offered the first year of production. Great lil hot rods.

The '80 came with reverse, black Comstars, narrower than the ProLink wheels.

Yes I know but the 80s weren’t silver and those rotors look like ProLinks.

The '80 wheels are reverse Comstars as mentioned but where the width sizes of the '79.
The ProLink wheels use the same hub and "spokes" but both rims are wider, actually the widest of the Comstars that Honda offered on any of their bikes.

My (mostly) totally stock '80, when I owned it:
