Wheels Ever Fail?

I'm trying to figure out what wheels to buy and as I looked at them, I wondered
what kind of torque loads they will take before / or if they fail?

So I called a couple of vendors and basically the salesmen had no idea.

I want to run my car at the strip and also have a street car that has some nice looking wheels. Right now I want to buy the ones listed below, 17x7 in front and 18x10 in the back.

Is this even an issue and if so, how much power before the wheels break?


How much torque are you making? I'd be more concerned with the wheel weight and if you lift the front off the ground. Coming down is hard on the whole front end. Those rims should suffice, but they're pretty pricey.

You can get a whole set of Showwheels Streeters on here for a little more than the price of one of those and they're pretty good looking tires.
