1 tuff z Posted March 5, 2012 Share Posted March 5, 2012 Friend of mine picked up these ultra rare magnesium Z rally car wheels awhile back. Pretty cool and super light. Not posting to drive you to the auction but wanted to post more so someone who has not seen these wheels before can do so. link Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnc Posted March 5, 2012 Share Posted March 5, 2012 I would defiantly have the crack tested before putting them on any car. Real magnesium wheels need to be inspected periodically. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roger280zx Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 Those are so totally awesome. And I'm a total vintage speed part nerd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

srgunz Posted March 12, 2012 Share Posted March 12, 2012 Those wheels are past their service life. For car show only. Drive car to show and then bolt these on. Or trailer it with the wheels on. Even if they did not show any cracks when tested they are still too weak to use. Good wheels to use as mold to make alloy replicas though.
