I can't remember the company name, and it takes my computer 20 minutes to load the whole magazine. Eck!

Finally?
Fiberrides were stock wheels on the '89 Dodge CSX VNT. I might be mistaken, but they might have been the only wheels you could get with that car (they were gold). Oh, and those Rennworx wheels you're probably referring to are $3,200 E A C H. And go check out their dealer network. Lots of bling, no possible way to speak to an English-speaking non-gutter-urchin "fruntah" who has to order them and doesn't know what they are anyway ("Hay, yo, boyeee...some foo be castin nasty glancins fur some RENNWORKS dubs. Herdumm?") Yow. |

My bicycle buddy is scared of CF wheels on his bicycle, I'd be terrified of them on my car/motorcycle. One little chip/flaw and at 100mph it could be 'kablamo' I'll stick with forged Al wheels thank you (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)
