No they're not. ESE Carbon are the automotive equivalent of a dead-beat dad who always misses his kid's birthdays and alimoney payments, despite always promising to do better next time. I signed-up weeks ago to be a 'launch customer' for their September release (research on the competition) and have heard nothing, not even an email like the website promises. Hard to sell me something that doesn't exist, let alone is DoT certified or is validation tested.
So far, in the entire world, there is one (1x) car with ESE carbon fiber wheels attached to it. A yellow, 10-year-old Porsche 911. That's it. One car. And it's the company's owner.
