Yup. I think C10 is lighter. Check with John at CCW. Fewer spokes are easier to clean too....but not too few that could compromise strength. John is really picky about making sure his wheels are really strong.

My CCW's are shot peened w/black ano. The color isn't "pure" black, it's a bit lighter with just a hint of purple, but looks nice & hasn't changed. Cleaning them is a bit more difficult due to the roughness of the finish, but not a big deal. Use a brush instead of a rag & they're good.

The caps are Boothe Designs locking billet caps-- very nicely made pieces! But, as you can see, the anodizing is yet another color of black.

Steve,
Nice, thanks for the link! Interesting thing design on those "No Turn" center caps!
But my question was I thought these wheels were designed not to take center caps in order to save weight? I thought only the like of C140 can take center caps?

Getting them painted makes them real easy to clean...CCW C10's in Cobalt Blue...
I'm sure most would not choose that color, but it works for me. I appreciate that John was willing to do it (since they sub out the anodizing/painting), but I wish I could get him to send me the caps he owes me...

Where's all the love for the Enkei's ?
Ultimate bang for the buck.
VOLK TE 37'S are a great "medium" dollar wheel.
Too bad Volk RE30's are not made for the 911. Superwheel.
