Default ***gloss blue carbon fiber wheels***

World Exclusive here!!! Just had my custom LX33 21" Pur Wheels refinished with matte black faces, gloss blue carbon fiber lips, and silver hardware. The final product is nothing short of amazing. After installing the complete Tom's dry carbon aero kit the rose gold and monaco gold combo didn't quite flow with the build. This particular carbon's color is derived from the actual carbon being dyed blue then being topped with a clear coat. Unlike, Pagani and other echelons of motorsport, they simply tint their clears over black carbon to give the appearance of hue in the carbon. The craftsmanship is superb and I'm beyond ecstatic to be the first to have these. Here's a few shots I took. Enjoy!

Well to be fair, Pagani, etc their wheels are actually constructed from CF, not just a cosmetic overlay.

Pagani does not have any carbon fiber wheels. The Koenigsegg One is the only car in the world to have carbon fiber wheels and even those are not 100% carbon fiber. Anything done by Pagani is also an overlay like mine are. Difference? I have real blue carbon not tinted epoxy or clear. I also didn't spend 1.8M to get mine either LOL

Not true, I believe the Ford GT and the Ford Mustang GT350R both are available with full carbon fiber wheels.

Really not the style I see for an LC but enjoy! It certainly shows that you're really happy with the outcome and that's all that really counts!

No? How about 100% carbon fiber? Does that fit the style for the LC now? LMAO

Watch @ 1:31 "Uh..we're the first.. ..the world's first car manufacture to make a carbon fiber wheels actually..."
Ford may have something now but they didn't until 2017 long after Koenigsegg had them. Even still, Ford's carbon wheels are not full carbon nor are they pre-preg either so no comparison.

I have a feeling yours will be looking something like that in five years from now. LMAO

In 2023 I will most likely have a 2023 model Lamborghini or Ferrari. I'm sure they will probably look far more wild then the LC500-GT I posted even just being stock of the showroom floor. I'm sure your lease on your little red stock LC will be up before that though.

Unfounded perception of reality from an obnoxious person, you can go blow your wind elsewhere dear forum member...
