Full Carbon Fiber Faces / forged alum rim :rocks:

6MTFTMFW · 08-22-2007, 12:53 PM

I wonder if carbon fiber material is strong enough for a wheel? Hmm.
Why not just use titanium for wheels, that would be a perfect 10lb wheels in 19"

It' aluminum with a cosmetic layer of carbon over it. Looks cool but, not anything too special. Read the 3rd paragraph.

I'll take some Dymags.

so then are they ricer instead of baller because they'd be higher performance without having CF glued on them for purely cosmetic reasons?

tech they are Ricer now that I think about it ... when I OP them I thought they where CF faces

Looks like they know how to market their wheels even tho they only have 1 set out.

Dymags are the real deal for carbon fiber wheels...crazy.

Although I would be happy with forged magnesium wheels like the BBS RE-Mg's.

Rice or not, still looks pretty hot IMO.

Hmmm...I dunno...personally I'm starting to get sick of seeing carbon fiber on cars these days...mainly because 99.999% of the time you see it on the car, it's not even real. Meh...

Carbon fiber has been perverted from something genuinely used to reduce weight in racing...to just a "look".

ksfrogman · 08-23-2007, 01:11 AM

The one bad thing about the CF cover is that it would be difficult to repair cosmetically?

Zeiss · 08-23-2007, 01:13 AM

CF

magnesium= Teh baller king

Queenskid24 · 08-23-2007, 02:34 AM

pretty steep prices but i will admit there are a couple on their site i would like.

montreal_bimmer · 08-23-2007, 10:49 AM

some look pretty sick...

eleven11 · 08-23-2007, 11:10 AM

Man, that's a ballin' website. Props to the designer.

judec · 08-23-2007, 01:59 PM

CF adds something to the overal strenght of the aluminium core, so it's not only cosmetic usage, even if I admit it's used mostly for this reason. Anyway, pretty light wheels, cool design, acceptable price for this class of wheels, remarkable quality.

The dymag's are even lighter, but U know, for almost double the price...

down4it · 08-23-2007, 02:06 PM

These just became the nicest made wheels ever... I would toss my HRE's for those in a heartbeat...

E90330iS · 08-23-2007, 02:07 PM

Not feeling CF on Rims, looks easily scratched??
