Available in both street and race-only applications, they offer an unsprung weight advantage that enhances acceleration, cornering, and braking for improved performance on the road, faster lap times and quicker quarter-miles. Using aerospace-grade materials and processes, they feature a unique one-piece construction that eliminates bonding. Both stronger and lighter than aluminum or magnesium, carbon fiber is also a damage-resistant and corrosion-free material. (Click image to enlarge) Price: starts at $3,350 per set.
