very cool looking, all our customers love dymag and what the wheels offer for a performance car. let us know how the handling and breaking improves with the reduction in unsprung weight

Weights of wheels:
I will weigh the factory wheels after the Dymags are installed.
Unfortunately things are on hold for a while. See the last picture. One of the wheels has a small defect in it. My options are to keep with a small monetary adjustment or send to factory to have reconditioned. I am proposing I use these wheels, have them send me a replacement wheel and then change it and send the bad one back. They don't seem to like that option. Am I out of line in my request? I don't want a refinished (although new) rim. Would almost rather keep the wheel with the blemish than take a chance on a refinished rim.
Front 16.80 pounds

Rear 20.50



The bad news

I would say keep them and get some money back. After you drive it for a couple of months all your wheels are going to have little scratches and pinholes.

They are great, but that logo on the lip really takes away from the look.

They would look way better without it...

They now come from the factory clearcoated. Bill from Rennworx (I think they are the importer/distributor) told me when they first started to bring them in they were not clearcoated and a pain to keep clean so they now order them all clearcoated from the factory. What color are you getting?

questions:

If you curb rash them do they have to go over seas to get repaired? What is the cost on this if they have mentioned it or not?
Whats the website to view other wheels?

They are stunning.
