There have been posts about the CF rims and how unsafe they are. One guy had problems becuase of the heat that hit BBK let off and it affecte the wheel Another guy hit a dip and sent a hairline fracture in one of the spokes. Yeah those are phatty and if for show only go for it. But for daily driving, plz be careful.

its just alloy wheels overlayed with CF molded onto the spokes so its just as strong as any alloy wheel...but i dunno how strong they really are...when i get a new car (preferably a G35 coupe, maybe in couple years) i'll get some of those in 19s...and buy a pit bull tied to my car when i park it at places....hahhahah
