Hi quick question on the fd non reinforced wheels
 

Hi everybody I have a Nissan 350z TT and im looking for a set fd 93 wheels with MT for drag racing. Now my concern is that I heard that the 93 fd wheels weight 13 pounds which that’s good but they tend to crack. What I would like to know is do they start to crack easily or it takes time. :dunno: Take in consideration they will not be used for daily driving im only going to use them for the track and I go like once a month.

What do you guys think suites me better the non reinforced or the reinforced. I wanted the best performance but i dont want to buy twice 13 to 16 pounds in wheels is a big difference. Let me know thanks.

There are still tons of non-reinforced wheels out in use that haven't developed cracks. I would not expect radical failure, but the wheel to start noticeably cracking first. Given that you are only talking about doing some drag launches on them occasionally, I think you'll be fine. Hell, there's still some non-reinforced wheels out there on hard driven auto-x/track cars with no problems.

Thanks anyone else

If I were drag racing I wouldn't be concerned about the non-reinforced wheels at all. What cracks them is sustained high lateral g loads, not acceleration.
