April 17th you mean?

 

Sorry. Fixed!

 

wow those look amazing

 

can you PM prices for the dark CF40+43, thank you

 

PM Sent.

 

Will there be any made for fitment to e92 M3, or is that too small a market to produce for?

 

We can offer a CF wheel for ANY car since the centers are cut per application. The only issue is the carbon wheel barrel size. So long as there is a 19 or 20" barrel with the correct width, we can do it. For M3, we would probably do:


19x8.5 or 9 Fr; 19x11 Rr
20x8.5 or 9 Fr; 20x11 Rr

 

Hot wheels Simon, good luck with the sale

 

Any pictures of these on a vehicle?

 

Not yet, but working on it.

 

Apparently working on it quicker than I thought.

Here's a shot (bad one) of the CF43 on an R8 from the Top Marques show in Monaco...




And here's a photoshop we did on a Mercedes C63...

 

Please advise future owners that they will need a tire install shop with a Corgi type machine.

This machine holds the wheels assy at the barrel (lug hole )and not the rim assy.

I had a CO2 cylinder puncture my new PS2 rear and I had to tow the car home and re-install my stock wheels and take the wheel assy over 100 miles to a shop with a approved machine....

I wouldnt take these wheels on a long drive out of town with a chance of a tire failure and to worry about a shop with the correct tire machine to install.

Gee-Bee

 

Wow, that is remarkable, I never even thought about such issues....

 

Can you PM me the price of CF40. thx
