Great looking wheel. Is it safe to assume that cutting weight is part of the plan? That looks far lighter than the stock wheel with the huge cush drive.

 

A question though: is there any cushioning is that wheel? It looks like there could be some inside the casting where the 5 studs go through the spacer.

Hi Scud. Yes the drive is cushioned, though not as much as the stock setup. It's the drive from the MGS01 which has five rubber cushions between the rim and the spline drive plate.

 

And yeah, did this in order to drop two of the best kinds of weight to lose, those of the unsprung and rotating variety. Haven't had a chance to weigh anything yet, busy weekend, but tomorrow I will have numbers. Guesstimate is at least five pounds lighter. Also, looks really trick ;)
