Pretty cool additions to this wheel setup!

I might have missed it but is the ETA on 2.2 Carbon Fiber faces still about a week out?

I got bored today and cut my own for my rear wheels.

Thanks! Its really a do it all wheel. I am not sure there is another design out there that these cannot do just as well as anything else and its all in ONE design. That was the whole purpose of these. You should never have to buy another wheel even if trends change. Its the lightest, heaviest (or close to it), narrowest, widest wheel out there and has tons of offsets too.

Thanks!

I was told 2 weeks ago tomorrow that it would be 2 weeks before I get more CF so, hopefully I hear that its shipped tomorrow. I will see if I can get some info. If its shipped tomorrow, I should be able to start cutting Wed and also shipping that same day.

I will have to go check your thread to see what you came up with.

So, what is the thickness of those delrin wheel weight holders, I'm thinking I would like to use them as spacers, because I need something about half the thickness of my current spacers.

3/16"

If you need wheel spacers that width I can do that too.

I totally agree with all this. And imo it is one of the best if not the best looking rim out there

These are sweet. You just need to polish them to mirror finish for the ultimate bling factor.

I'm looking to order a set, and I assume the most of the pics I've seen are of the D cuts, and I would
Ike to know what my options are.

I got a picture for you. Hopefully it helps.

I talked to my CF supplier today. I was told that they are not ready to ship the entire order. I told them it was urgent so they are shipping what they have. I should be caught up on orders up to 4/1/12 as of Fri, maybe even Thurs. All orders after that have a chance of shipping Saturday but more likely early next week.

The single biggest advantage these wheels have over the glued carbon wheels is the ability to change foams

You can change foam with glued CF wheels too, you just remove spacers.
