CF on wheels is a lame concept. Was then, is now. :down:
And I have never liked the faux "3-piece style" rim designs. Ever. :down:

Dude they are not carbon fiber rims. Its a regular alluminum rim with a 3mm (millimeter) layer of carbon fiber for looks. The cf does absolutely nothing on this wheel besides give it a different look.
DO NOT THINK THIS WHEEL HAS ANY CARBON FIBER IN ITS STRUCTURE!!! its just a cosmetic layer of cf.

All of us are aware of this. So stop shouting. :airon:
The choice of carbon fiber as an exterior veneer/finish/color/pattern is a stupid idea that looks cheap. End.

Some ppl sounded like they were under the impression that the wheel was partially made of cf. For example the question of the wheel's weight kinda implies that the person asking thought the CF had something to do with the structure.
