Don't know how well Carbon Fiber wheels would handle under 1000+rwhp

The thing about carbon fiber wheels is they crack very easily. Motorcycle Riders experienced the same issue. HRE I believe has discontinued their full carbon fiber wheels due to this as well. They released a line back in 2012 but have since go away with the full carbon fiber line up due to several issues.
Carbon Fiber is weird.. It is indeed very strong but certain impact can cause it to break.

I could see you putting these Carbon Fiber wheels on your Z and then as soon as you drop the clutch and the boost kicks in, all 4 wheels break just due to the sheer force put onto them haha
I know Carbon Titanium which is like Carbon Fiber just the silver isn't gray but more of an actual silver, its like 10x stronger and doesn't shatter like Carbon Fiber. The Pagani Zonda R has that for all Carbon Accents on theirs due to the durability and the lighter weight. Too bad it is also like 3-5x as much as Carbon Fiber as well.

400zTT has awoken!!! Final goodies arriving soon. Stay tuned! Shout out to Forged Performance. A lot of innovation went into this build which includes several Nissan GT-R performance parts. High Horse Power or Bust! (Goal for 1,300-1,400hp at crank, 1,100-1,200 rwhp) Building a car for high horse power is tough but doing it when parts have yet to be developed takes guts. Forged one up'ed it by integrating several high-end performance parts from Big Brother. The build list is quite impressive and the quality will speak for itself. No Copycat build here. Thanks again Sharif Abdelbaset and FP Crew. Complete Build List will be posted soon with new Upper and Billet Lower Manifold
