Geez, people should leave well enough alone. The Carrera GT is a work of art and those that come behind trying to make a better "Mouse Trap"=FAIL!!

I was afraid I was going to be the only one who didn't like them.. The CF part of the wheel makes them look smaller.

The black barrels throw it off, making it look tachy.

I like them, but 90% of this is based on the assumption they will enhance performance due to lighter weight. I wouldn't pick them based just on looks, though.

Size? Weight?

What is the point of putting on these rims? Can you run any R compound tires with these rims? If not, stock magnesium rims are much better.
