[DeTomaso] Weld Wheels

[JDeRyke at aol.com]

Weld makes several diiferent kinds of wheels. I use one Weld drag-race 
wheel, made with spun aluminum rims and a cast-mag center, rivited together. It 
mounts my collapsible spare- about the only place on a Pantera I'd recommend 
such wheels. They also make cast-aluminium wheels which are safe to use on 
street cars; look for the SEMA seal on such wheels. That means they were 
load-tested; drag race wheels aren't tested the same. Three-piece wheels 
whether bolted or rivited   often cannot go around corners safely without cracking 
at the bolt-circle, and the lightweight spun rims tend to crack with time. 
Good luck- J DeRyke
