We have had some pretty bad posts on CZ wheels here on the org. There are tuners that won't use them due to manufacturing issues. I do like the wheels though. Would be interested in what in the tech talk got your attention.
Still looking at OZ.
It's very difficult to get real honest reviews of wheels. First your riding style/surface is important. Second your weight and the bike's weight - combined. I am told that magnesium is very light but brittle, so a lot of vibration and feedback from them. CF is stiff but compliant relative to the magnesium, so less feedback and vibration but they are not as strong as forged aluminum. CF can also be damaged easier by stuff like wheel changes. Forged Aluminum seems to be the best street abuse. Strong, hearty, pretty light.
Right now the Busa handles perfectly for my riding. It goes exactly where I want it to go, turn in is neutral, she likes tire pressures between 30-40 psi, and the bike does not require a lot of baby sitting as it's super stable. So I'm a little afraid of super light wheels tipping the character over to being twitchy. I even felt the 55 series tire made the bike twitchy! So you could say maybe I don't need wheels at all then. And I would say but we're not discussing needs we're discussing wants! (yes, I discussed a wheel purchase with the boss!) Those of you with CF any thoughts? Too quick maybe?
So, all out performance/weight it's carbon fiber. High power racing maybe magnesium? Street is aluminum, forged aluminum being the best. Any thoughts on this welcome.
