Just been watching Iron Chef....those wheels remind me of serious cutlery!!
I agree it looks like you could cut your hands just washing them!
But hey if you like them get them. I like the standard wheels myself. But then I am poor post kitchen installation!

I actually don't mind the pictured wheels. A bit of style over substance but they look pretty cool. Is it much of a weight penalty (bearing in mind that you still want to track the car, right)?
What do the other wheels look like. Pics?

Actually, I've still only got the one scratch. I keep planning to get it fixed but the logistics of getting it to the bloke to do it during the week keeps stopping me.

I don't think wheel weight is going to be my biggest weight challenge!

(Just being realistic)Surely you remember that old formula about unsprung weight being x times more costly than sprung weight?
