Anyone know anything about these CF wheels? About 2K each light, but are they any good? Custom sizes available, seems to fit the old FGTs.

I've looked at a variety of CF wheels and would not consider any of them unless they were OEM tested and approved. There have been some nasty failures of aftermarket CF wheels. Even if you found a wheel you felt comfortable with, there is no assurance it will hold up in your application unless properly tested. The special coating needed on the barrel of the GT350R CF wheels comes to mind.

Thanks for the info. I did some more searching and found this.

Confirms that they haven't made even 1 real wheel, for a customer or even shown one at a trade show. But yet they are taking 50% to 100% deposits on wheels. At best they are funding RD or building an manufacturing line with the cashflow, at worse...

Best to wait and see how the Telsa owners like them.

They aren't even located in Lufkin TX, or in WI.
