Good question, actually the carbon rims are slightly less weight because we machine a 1/16" layer off the entire center section in order to fit the carbon fiber perfectly. We haven't officially compared rim weights yet, but I would say that the carbon rims should be about .5 pound lighter.

And, the face of the Comp 5ive is actually the finalized design face for the CF5ive, which in prototype form was slightly different. The new design is much more refined, and clean looking, also slightly lighter.

.............nice looking rims. You made a strategic mistake by not including 18 inch rims. Most competition spec tires are not available in diameters greater than 18. Most people buying 20 inch rims probably don't care that much about competition rims. If your company wants to win over customers that actually need light weight competiton rims, you need to offer the rims in 18 inch diameter.

Thanks for the input. Our 17" and 18" wheels are going through testing right now, we should be releasing them by January. Thanks!
