That's nothing, Sloth. Have you ever checked out the weight of GT2 wheels? Boat anchors.
Boat anchors that weigh -- Front 28.1 lbs, Rear 33.6 lbs -- for those interested.

Thanks, Jack. I couldn't bring myself to post the actual weights. It was too depressing.

She's a staunch conservative Republican author/radio show host that's funny, smart and has good looks. Something rare for blonds or any women for that matter.

I must agree...that statement was a bit harsh on V-Day!!!

Fortunatley(at least for me), I am not married and do not have any interference on my Porsche spending program...Currently, I still have a surplus and have not entered the dread of deficit spending.

Perhaps I was a bit far reaching with that statement...It was various hearsay that lead me to that conclusion(hence my retraction). After reviewing Fikse and Kinesis web sites, I have concluded that they are both strong and lightweight so I guess it comes down to your wheel appearence preference. Fikse's look like great wheels...I just preferred the look of Kinesis with my car...

Where's DTR's BS meter when you need it... LOL!!!!

Ask and you shall receive. No reason to laugh either, as spreading misinformation on Rennlist is not a laughing matter.

Thanks for making my job a little easier.

Now, back to your regularily scheduled program of lies, embelishments, half truths, chest pumping, ****** size comparison, political commentators and all the other good stuff some of you guys are so well known for.

Perhaps I should rephrase this:

If you're considering purchasing wheels you might want to email me privately.
