they cant make rims out of carbon fiber because its to brittle. they will shatter under the load that vehicle tires are put under. although they shave some aluminum to reduce weight and then reenforce the rim w/cabon fiber.
i dont think they look rice. they look better than PAINTED black rims. painting your anything looks cheap. like calipers. it just draws people attention to your little ass calipers and stock rotors. i think the carbon fiber ads a touch of class to an anthracite tl.
