For me, the price of these wheels was justified. Yes, you will notice the difference after switching to RACs. Though some of my joy was due to different tires on new wheels also.
Anyway - these wheels are VERY easy to sell. So give it a shot.

yak52pilot - Excellent, thanks!
The price doesn't bother me, not that they are inexpensive, but you get what you pay for and it seems like one of the best places to remove weight is right there, and the fact they have a one inch (now on the '08s) advantage in rim width up front should help with any understeer I want to dial out. When I am ready to sell the car, they come off and go separately anyway, as you said. Now I need to figure out if the stock A048's are the correct size or if I need something different. Time to search......
RHT3 - Dude, if you think these wheels are expensive, you would absolutely die if you knew how much cyclists spend to shave off 200
grams. A good CF bike frame/fork ONLY is more than $3,000.
