Ford Offers First Ever Mass Produced Carbon Fiber Wheels



Ford has come up with a way to make the already ridiculous GT350R that much lighter. How? By fitting the car with the first mass-market carbon wheels.

Good. Hopefully Chevy won't get ahold of this. I hear the 2016 Camaro will be significantly lighter and a bit smaller. Ford will need this on GTs. We are going in the wrong direction. 2015 Stang is heavier than my 2012.

I want one!

Now I only need a lot of $$$


Edit: of course I mean I want the entire car! Not just one wheel.
