Not sure Alex, it's all working for me. I wasn't on last night, so not sure. Joomla has so many failings it isn't funny. It is clearly a retail shopfront type platform, and the forum is just an add on feature of it. I can't multi delete posts, merge posts/threads, list goes on...

A Japanese company by the name of Weds Sport has come up with the first full carbon fiber wheel. They unveiled the wheels with what they call their Dry Carbon Wheel Project at the last Tokyo Auto Salon show.

One wheel weighs in at just 2.76kg, which works out to be 6.08475844 pounds. Interested in getting a set of these for your car? Expect to pay around $10,000-$12,000 for the set.

Weds never actually made that wheel. It was a disaster during testing.

Bahahahahaahah, you're losing it Brendan. You just worked it out now?????????????
As Tony Montana would say:
In this country, you gotta make the money first.
Then when you get the money, you get the power.
Then when you get the power, then you get the women.

No further info Alex, but they did not make it into production. They were considered very unsafe and simply too expensive. Dymags completely ran through them like a finish line. Brendan; check my join date... :D
