the PFDs are the original ones that weigh 13.8lbs. They later made a reinforced version that are heavier, 15.3 I think. If you're going drag, I would use the light weight ones...rotational mass kills

Sorry to drag up a dead post.
I'm looking to use OEM FD wheels on my Alfa Romeo track car.
I found a set of FD wheels, but they may be an early type. Will the early style really be prone to failure, if just being used with UHP tires? I'm not running R-comps for this event, just ES100 tires, 225/45/16.
Should I only look for the later style wheel then?
