If I decide to keep my Crossfire or get anther one, I might just look into this. Right now roughly $2,000 per wheel is not in my budget at all, but I would like to inform everyone who would want to reduce unsprung weight of our cars to look into them. People mention the Crossfire's drivetrain sucks an unusual amount of power going to the ground, so maybe some lightweight wheels will help. The manufacturer told me they can get group-buy rates too if many are interested, don't know how many yet though.
There was one on display at the LA Auto show that was in real bad shape. Lip looked like it got chewed off (like a styrofoam) and one of the spokes was broken. There was no one around to ask why they had it a messed up one on display but it sure made me change my mind of thinking of getting one. Wish I saw this post before so I could have taken a pic.
