CF WHEELS

duno i had 140/75 -17 on f and 240/50- 16 on r .on cf 130/70- 18 f and r 240/40 -18 , if you can be bothered to find weight of tyres ...

Mate,
That really sounds like a great mod!
Saves about 9.5 KG (near 21 pounds) of unsprung weight!
That's dam good I would say.
I also like the idea of lifting up the chassis a half inch or so for more lean angle.
May I inquire as to the cost? Or a link would be nice.
I assume you researched the different brands - any dope on comparisons?
 
Thanks @kaivalagi for the dope.
Woah NELLIE!!!!
That's $4,619.00 USD.

Guess I too shall remain in drool phase for now!

Well you do not have to pay the VAT so it is closer to $3699.45, but still a chunk of change... And you will likely need new tires as well...
