[QUOTE="GT Premi, post: 15732715, member: 121775"] And even if you could, they're still not going to be as light [i]and[/i] stiff as the R's wheels, size-for-size. Not unless you have some super deep pockets and can somehow get your hands on some titanium wheels, at which point you'll have [i]long[/i] passed the point of diminished returns on investment. (On a side note, I just recently learned that titanium is actually a pretty cheap metal. Forming it into something usable is what makes the cost astronomical. Which I did know that manufacturing titanium parts is difficult.) I said the same thing before. There's no doubt in my mind that Ford is losing money on every R that rolls off the assembly line. Sales of the standard GT350 and the lesser Mustangs makes up the slack. [/QUOTE]
