I love the look and have considered them, but I do not like the fact that they are CF over aluminum. Why not 100% CF in the middle? The weight savings is minimal compared to Turbo hollows and the price is steep at $1700 per rim.

I have to say, I'm not convinced either!

A 3 Piece Wheel holding all 3 parts together with 10 studs! mmmmm!
And the Spokes look very thin/fragile.

What guarantees are you giving?
I will take a set, if they break and I crash my car as long as you pay for the damage!

actually it has a full 40 fasteners, the remaining 30 are reverse or called "blind bolts" - they bolt from the rear.

These wheels carry a load rating of close to 2000 pounds per wheel, due to the fact that the carbon fiber is also structural and adds to the strength. Besides that we offer a full 100% 2 year warranty on a any structural or finish issues.
