Carbon Wheels
So apparently Dynomag is back in business but they have no current plans to reintroduce wheels for cars.
Researching these guys now (carbon revolution)....anyone heard of them?
A guy I used to race with is the test pilot for the ultimate aero and set the record in the car before the Bugatti took it back so hopefully I have an 'in'.

Nice find...5.6kg (12 pounds) for a 19" inch wheel???? AMAZING!!!
I might have to look into a set of those, although the fitments shown don't look like they will work on a BS.
Weds was supposed to introduce this wheel (see link below) last year but never made it past a handful of prototypes due to low demand. Weight for a 19 is a claimed 2.75kg (6.1 pound)

I kinda doubt they would make one set but they might make two sets.
I will research further and come back with the details.
what sizes and offsets are you using?

I'm running 19x11 rears and 19x10 fronts. The 19x11 rears allow for 305 rubber with an aggresive suspension and ride height set-up with no rubbing issues whatsoever. I do not know the exact offsets of my Dymags, maybe Brad or Simon can help us out with those numbers. They may even have been in contact with these guys already, I was recently trying to source an extra set of Dymags and when it looked like I was out of luck Brad was doing some research on alternative lightweight and carbon wheel manufactures, maybe he came across this wheel.
