GT350R Wheels Aussie Made

[Utedog7]

I found this article today and it's the first time I've seen mention of who actually makes the wheels. A Geelong company which means to me maybe we will be able to access them here in Australia for a reasonable price.

An excerpt from the article:

Local company Carbon Revolution has been chosen by Ford USA to supply carbon fibre wheels to the new Shelby Mustang GT350R vehicle.

The one-piece wheels promise improvements to performance and handling, along with massive weight savings of more than 40 per cent compared to alloy rims,

Guys in the USA were estimating around $12K for a set from Ford, I think we can do a bit better group buy local? :cheers:

I know of the benefits and stuff of getting these, but not a fan of the design personally.

I think I'll stick to my Avant Garde wheels for $1900

Just not sure between the color and M310 and M550 (5 spoke)

Full carbon fibre wheels and reasonable price don't go well together, I'd be expecting 5 figure prices for a set of 4.
