Default rims made of carbon!

http://www.azev.com/world/world.htm

goto what´s new, new rims, carbon...

Found this one in an European tuner magazine.

Rims made of carbon.
In 18x8.5 inch only 6 kg (13.2 lbs) The star is from aluminium and the rest it from real carbon.
Too bad this rim comes only in 18, 19 and 20 inch.

I´ve called this company and asked for specs. It will come in all lug specs.
1300 USD for 1 rim is hella expensive.

Nice!! Too bad the carbon won't be visible when the tires are mounted. Cause people that buy 18, 19, 20 inch rims wants to show what they've got ofcourse...

"... making it impossible to overheat the brakes..." That's a gutsy statement, and terribly untrue.
