    I know Moe was looking into them, but a little too pricey!

    If its the same wheels I saw at HHP a couple of weeks ago, then they're light as shit!!!!!! Could pick one up with only a couple of fingers they were so light.

    Hm, not sure.
    Man, cf wheels and ceramic brakes would probablly save 100 to 150 lbs of unsprung weight though, definately fit for a super car!

    So you don't think cf wheels or ceramic brakes or both are good for the street?

    I just think that with the way the rodes are around here and all the pot holes i would not trust them. I know that CF is very strong but on a 3000Lb ( i dont know the Lb of the LX cars?) and my 300 pound ass i would be worried. the rotors would be great if you rode raced it but i would not wast the money on an everyday driver or even a weekend street driver. IMO

    Thats the way i feel there is damage all over it right now i just got hit in the front bumper. I backed into a dresser and have some chips in the roll pan and the trash can fell into it and gave it a masive dent in the rear:sorry:

    they have a lifetime warranty but I would be scared shitless of breaking them still.
