my friend has a set in a gsxr1000 and straight out the box improved his lap times, the down side is i dont think there suitable for the road as they can fracture with the abuse of uk roads i.e pot holes.

Depends upon the wheels Liam; if they are TUV or sold for road use then they are fine and you just need to watch them the same as mag wheels

Have a set on my 05 zx10r they are amazing in every way....I could not believe how light they are    :occasion14:U wont be disappointed.  When i bought mine i was recommended to drop the front 5 mm to keep the front planted. Never did though but saying that i have had no problems with front washing out.
