Simply put, the Spoons arnt worhth the $$ because they are only 6.5" wide...

now to quote a SCCA Solo 2 national Champion (CSP).. "I'd rather run a heavy wide wheel then a Light Narrow one".

Why would he rather run a 13 LB 15X7 vs a 9.8LB 15X6.5......
Think about it for a while.... PM me if you want to know the reason why....
and if u cracked the slipstream, it wouldnt hurt as much if you cracked a sw388 =)

"id rather run a LIGHT WIDE WHEEL than run a HEAVY wide wheel" either way the slip/sw388 isnt the best lookin wheel out there....all boils down to personal preference
