Many years ago Citroen produced carbon fibre road wheels for their rally programme. The car was the SM.
Given the advances in materials of this nature in the meantime it surprises me no one markets wheels of this material now.
Any thoughts and / or opinions?

Pete.
 
Thanks for the exta posts.
All information is much appreciated.
Cheers , Pete.
 
MARSH in the states has a composite wheel for racing applications - not sure of current status since the plant burned down a year or so ago
