Nice indeed but I wonder how they would cope if they were kerbed? Carbon Fiber can become weak and structurally unsound when its damaged from what I remember. Still look the shizzle though!

The Ascari race team and a few others ran the Dymags as they are three times stronger than normal wheels in any given scenario. The Ascari race driver actually said that he was able to use the kerbs to get around the corners faster using the Dymags, wheras the normal race alloys would have died on him :happy2:

Interesting reading that. Although the kerbs on a track aren't going to take huge chunks out of the rim lip like those on the road. Still, I'm sure they no more me about wheels so it must be right.
