Still... for $1490 ... I'd rather get a set of JDM STi gold wheels and keep $100 change ...

I'd rather keep the stock wheels and throw $1490 at engine :P

Too expensive, too worthless, and they dont even look good....

Why is CF suddenly becoming the "gold chains" of the auto world.....

I can't imaging just curbing one of those rims. They'll probably shatter. You'll leave shards of carbon fiber lying on the sidewalk.

if its real carbon fiber lol

there are really good CF wheels for motorcycles, but have never heard about any for a car.

STIml8n · 02-03-2004, 10:48 AM

I would rather put the $$$$ into other areas of the car. We already have some of the lightest wheels around.

They are simply flashy. With these hood scoops and wings, we are already more flashy than a reasonble person would want their car to be.
