That's nuts...wouldn't want to rely on them staying in one piece under some heavy braking conditions....

Look at the technical data! over 20lbs~10kg a wheel! and for that they want 5k a wheel :laugh: I suppose you'll get a great view of your discs when they get warped from the lack of airflow!

They are made from the same poly as nasa use on their space shuttle windscreens. So i cannot see them breaking anytime soon, unless you are doing some crazy re-entry through the atmosphere, as i know how fast some of you crazy people go....  :lipsrsealed: like lightspeed or something
