Ya it's part of the design plus to save weight, the SL's are more of a track wheel as they don't weigh ****.

Muteki's. Short open ended. i think I'm going to go with the longer ones though. They don't stick out enough for me, I want them to pop a little more. But they are very sutble which is also good.

Yea the SL's don't have center caps to keep low in weight. SL = Super Lap.

I agree the subtleness actually works with this setup.

My Titek extendeds are not at all subtle
