Product Spotlight-Carbon/Mg wheel

-2006 CarbonMg Car Wheels by Dymag
-Each carbon fiber rim is fabricated using a solid metal mold.
-Carbon fiber in this form is not only very strong, but is also quite resistant to shock.
-It will not shatter as evidenced by its use in the construction of formula one chassis and aircraft wings
-the low weight but high stiffness of carbon fiber rims produces a very light weight rim to the wheel ration, significantly reducing the moment of inertia and drastically reducing the amount of power required to turn the wheel
-Consider that a standard Porsche 18" wheel weights about 30.86lbs, the Dymag Carbon Fiber/Magnesium equivalent weights around 13.23lbs

Effect of carbon/magnesium wheels
1-improved acceleration
2-improved braking, reduced stopping distance
3-ligher, sharper steering
4-allows for softer damper settings giving more tire contact and therefore better grip
5-tire temps are more stable
6-improved wheel and tire balancing

In addition to ferrari, Porsche Carrera GT and other high end vehicles, MillaRacing will custom build the new carbon/magnesium wheels in 18", 19", and 20" sizes to fit virtually any make and model
-Pricing starts at $2045/wheel
