Default Manthey MM1 CL & 5-lug wheels ...
Manthey just launched a press release for their MM1 sports wheels available in CL and 5 lug fitments for GT3 and RS.

apparently saves around 9kg, available in silver or black...

pretty cool, if a little pricey!

Too bad they had to remove from the catalogues their magnesium 18s..

Magnesium vs Road 0-1

These look fantastic but don't come in 18"

They look like OZ's. I'm sure they cost 3x as much though

What do they weigh, 5 or 6 lbs? They are good looking.
