Never had any issue with them on the black car and that involves some not so great Aussie roads … I don’t think “normal” driving would not be a problem. Also I had the test data sent from TMR and they pass all the testing requirement.
However … the Orange car was being driven without a steering wheel ( long story and not by me ) and hit a kerb at 20 mph … two trashed TMR and while one was repairable I wouldn’t trust it - they are real thin.
If I could find a way to afford these I’d put my name down, unfortunately I’ve got to look at the long term project…
Currently favouring TMR because of the dished rear…still concerned about fragility though. I’d want them satin too without the polished rim…
Yes benja they look awesome in all black like on the BR green french exige.
My experience with TMR’s disintegrating, was a racing incident, but not a bad one. I basically had a wheel to wheel kiss with an S1 elise with standard early S1 elise wheels on. It didn’t even scratch the paint on the elise wheel, but it peeled the entire outer rim off my TMR. I couldn’t believe the amount of damage it had done. Still the sexiest S1 Exige wheel going though in my opinion.
I know a couple of guys with Audi, S1 Exiges, that run TMR’s on road and track and haven’t had any problems.
So is anybody ready to press the button and wanna do a group buy? I’m ready I think. I was just looking at the TMR Engineering website and found this about the Exige S1 Wheels which really cleared up a few outstanding questions I had :
_It’s because the biggest factor could achieve quite light fleshiness of a limb and a spoke while securing the quite high wheel strength compared with a mint product by a stiff rise by a hammering process that you could reduce the weight of it. I have no choice but to take out the strength by the thickness in purpose full of lacks in molecular disposition by the mint which is roughness of molecular density, there are no lacks in molecular disposition mostly by hammering by which molecular density has exceedingly, so it’s thin, original stiffness can be shown. This is high stiffness, the light amount, the merit of hammering which can be compatible. Since overlooking, it’s the shape of the spoke and the joint of a limb that you can’t go. This part is called a flange, but the weight is raised easily by this shape. When I get the shape as a lotus’s being pure (of a limb, a recent wheel is designed for big FF of an offset by the flat flange shape a spoke joins fully outside, so, with these a lot of shapes), the limb part inside the other side will be supported from the outside of the limb to maintain a tire. Because this is the same thing as to resist levelly with the end of a long stick, I need the serious power. In other words, when meat from flange part isn’t done thick, the limb part can’t be supported inside. The shape of the triangle spread on a central part from the outside needs extra meat by the normal specification to keep the strength. A balance can support a limb in the inside and outside of the country with to make it the flange shape a spoke joins at a place near a central part of a limb well, so on the other hand to utilize the merit of the forging procedure for our PODIUM-FSL series to the full it’s possible to book fleshiness in a flange part for a minimum. The drop which is 25mm from the outside limb to secure an escape of a caliper at a front, it’s included, but I don’t have the restrictions by a rear, so 50mm has been just also inside, and it’s joined. But I needed the hammering type of each size exclusive use for this. Such effort was needed to achieve a wheel of the world ultralightness for ELISE and EXIGE. 5.4 kilogram of front (normal 8.5kg) is comparison very normally with rear 6.8kg (normal 11.2kg) by measurement for FSL004 for EXIGE 15kg!. The weight saving which is so is achieved.
This part is called a flange
This is the only part I understand 
What about this bit :

I’m certainly up for a bit of extra meat on the central triangle…its the weekend after all 
PMSL 
lost in translation I guess
Indeed, it did make me chuckle 
You ready to press the button yet Jonny?
I will get some Ben but the rest of the work on the S1 is draining the funds. I reckon wheels will be the last thing I’ll end up getting… I need more time bud.
Don’t know if I can wait…you might have to be jealous of my TMRs.
Lol that’s fine bud 
Extra meat . . . Time for a kebab. It is the weekend after all!
I’m the same as JF, all my funds are being ploughed into saving for the next stage…it’s towards the bottom of my list at the mo sadly…
Right,can I just confirm exactly how much these would be again… To engine or not to engine, that is the question!
I’ll dig it out and post it up later bud or forward you the email from TMR.
Email it over please buddy
