   Just got some and wondering if it's best to wear them in a bit before the first ride?

   Only reason is I always wear in my walking boots before going out in the middle of no-where - nothing worse than finding a bit that rubs when you've got 10 miles and another day of walking ahead of you.

   Wasn't sure about these though because of the stiff sole, don't want to ruin them before I get on the bike!

   Fair enough. You could wear some thicker socks or extra socks just in case they rub?
   The sole is only stiff from the cleat backwards, its supposed to flexible forward of the cleat

   I've had 3 pairs & never had any problems with them rubbing or blisters.
