Carbon Fiber Wheels
Well, If no one else is going to ask, I will:
Bob,
Sportbikes have had carbon fiber wheels available for several years. Have you done any work in this regard?

To paraphrase Dorothy from Oz: If [trucks] can do it, why can't I?

I'd put in a vote for Fikse Mach V - I'm saving up my allowance for a set of these.

I have beautiful set of Oem 996 10 spoke Targa modular wheels.
They are like new with an almost new set of conti sport contacts 2 Ns with factory balance. 17x 7&9s ET 50 F 55 R
I think they would look great on your car.
Sell cheap 1200 +shp Tires Free!

Gary R, "Fikse Mach V",....Marc shaw was right, and you've got them! I'll remember that, really looking good, nice contrast to the dark met. blue, perhaps looking good, but are they easy to live with, do they scratch, are you able to clean the black break dust/humidity off as easy as Cup 1's being almost mat in finish. I can only imagine there's more to do after washing them, I have yet to see this new generation of "shine" where I live, so I'm a little bit backwards. I'm just a jealous guy, I love your wheels!.....MarcA.

You might concider a 3-4mm spacer if your lugs are long enough..looks like the fronts could come out some too. My buddy has Boxster wheels on his and they could also be out more but he needs longer lug bolts, he is just getting a full nut (switched to steel) on them as-is..
