I do like the look. I've seen them in carbon but prefer the OEM RS version. They are big and I think the carbon is just too much.

Thanks, I am choosing my path between the OEM and carbon
From your pics I think the OEM is better looking.

Really makes you appreciate the car cruising at times on open roads with no other cars at speeds up to 120 and it is so solid.......feels like 80................

2 year service today - including brake flush. Not very sexy, but it was time!

Wish those impeller wheels came from the factory that way. If I didn’t live on the other side of the US or felt like tackling the R&R myself, this would be on my bucket list.

Put him on a crash diet..he reduced about 40 pounds
...install was cake and took about 30 mins..fit was perfect !
Also added the charger in a location easily accessible...cord drops down for lighter connect and I just hang it up when not needed

I also installed mine. Do you feel any difference on the road from the weight loss?

Although I, too, would install a lithium battery, I strongly doubt that anyone could really feel the difference in weight made by this change.
