Carbon Revolution rims

PEPI · 08-24-2015, 06:27 PM

Hello folks,

The GTR 20" rims fit the 370z bolt on so......

I've been following the creation of Carbon Revolution (CR9) one piece carbonfibre rims last couple of years.
http://www.carbonrev.com/

The end solution for what they have created is truly impressive.....but the price

There is an Australian racing team Redback Racing who used CR9's rims on their GTR for the Targa Tasmania 2015.

Again the price of these rims are staggering - but I thought when you add up costs sticky tyres / BBK package / 'other rims' / suspension coilovers etc etc.,......

Well you can easily spend upwards of $15K.

With the type of mods FI and the power forum members are getting for performance - and what it costs - the thoughts about weight savings un-sprung mass yada yada.

Would the serious Forum modder consider these rims as a large substitute instead?
