Default Dymag Knock Offs?

Ran across this looking for some refinishing info for my Series II Dymags, I wonder what cost would be to re-create these rims I might call next week and see.

do we know if Dymags fit over the C5 brakes?

You know Dymag is still around, right? I'd think if there were a market for it, they'd probably be in a better position to make them again. I don't think many people will shell out for them though.

The wheels they are making now for Callaway are magnesium and carbon fiber for even less weight.

I know Dymag is still around, however they focus mainly on motorcycle rims. I know in looking around I think someone posted that they wanted $35K to make the mold again. Since getting mine I have had 3/4 offers just based upon my avatar(the one I use on CF and DC). Also a good source for replacements.

Id love to have a set of Dymags but not willing to pay the price of admission..

Oh, and a Callaway rear bumper too.

Sucks to be low rent.
