Carbon Fibre Rims

6kg compared to 18kg for the alloy equivalent. Apparently they don't
do 16" with a Hilux stud pattern though ;-)

wheels.html>

If you're looking for one of the coolest rims money can buy, German
specialist "Wheelsandmore" has the answer to your prayers: the
"Megalight-Forged-Series". These two piece wheels combine carbon-fiber
rims with ultra light alloy centers and titanium screws (approximately
40% weight savings compared to a stainless steel screw).

According to the "Wheelsandmore", the 20-inch version of this
technically advanced carbon-fiber / alloy wheel weighs a mere 6 kg or
about 13.2 lbs. That's compared to 18 kg or approx 40 lbs of a
standard same-size alloy wheel. But nothing comes for free as a set of
20-inch Megalight Forged Series wheels cost EURO 20,000 or $29,000. The
carbon-fiber / alloy wheels are available in 18 to 23'' sizes.
