We have finished this Wheel and have been testing it on an 630HP Supercharged 06 Mustang for about 4 months now and we have burnt through 3 set of tires on the rim already! We have had an amazing time putting it through every condition of abuse we could imagine and we could not make it fail,crack, chip, etc.. it was very impressive to see how drastic the rate of acceleration increased just be removing the aluminum rims and putting the carbon wheels on. More importantly I wanted to get some input on what you guys think....... they are 20"x 8.5" and weigh 14.4lbs. Thanks Aaron @ www.CarbonlineWheels.com

Don't like the look of it, but that is an extremely light wheel for 20". . .

What's pricing on a set?

A slimmer 5 spoke design would go over better. Good tech, but not a look most would go for on a mustang.

I like the idea, but not this wheels design. If there was a deep concave design, I'd be a buyer.

would be better with thinner spokes like others mentioned...also, more sizes and offsets would be nice since only 05+ mustang usually only use 20's
