    I have the regular Dymag magnesium wheels on my Corvette (originally designed for the Callaway twin turbo Vettes). They are nicely crafted, but prone to cracking if you hit a solid impact. Extremely difficult to repair due to dangers in welding magnesium (self sustaining reaction if ignited). Company was somewhat difficult to work with on replacements due to Callaway licensing agreement. Probably not an issue on these...

    Good reputation in the motorcycle community from what I know.

    Actually, the are a pain to deal with in the M/C world, as well as being the Heaviest light wheels out there.

    They weigh 14lbs,probably some of the lightest rims on the market.
    I wonder about them, too.

    The all carbon wheel is pretty light, but the mag/carbon wheel is heavier than most straight mag wheels.
