I'm happy to see Spoon releasing updated components for FK8's. ICB acquiring the rights to Desmond was clutch. I saw the new rim design today on an E46. I dig.

I thought Matt / ICB bought the rights to those but could be mistaken. I noticed the FK8 spec as well. :thumbup:
Not sure if he bought the rights since I didn't ask him but he is the sole reason they are on the market again so it wouldn't surprise me if he did.

I can confirm ICB purchased the Desmond rights. To re-release in new sizes, ex: FK8, Matt + team redesigned the wheels with newer technology. They are now stronger and presumably lighter.

Good to know. I only spoke with him briefly about the wheels last September.

Looking at getting some sw388s

Noted they come in two sizes that seem applicable. Can anyone confirm if either of these will work well with Dc2 platform running the spoon front calipers

15x8 et 35
16x7.5 et 30
