But if you are going to the extent that you are ripping out your air conditioner and firewall to build a race car, then you should be using actual racing equipment not ebay parts. I would like to see ONE true race car with NRG product on it. (also works bell/sparco/omp make lighter stronger products than NRG)
Sorry, but this is pretty much ********.

The hubs and QR's are engineered to very very tight tolerances. I know because I have them.

The wheels are definitely cheap street stuff, I know because I have one.

I will be changing my wheel in the next 6-12 months, for sure, but the hub and QR, I don't see how it could possibly be made any more reliable or strong, or at least how it could possibly be enough better for me to care.

I have much more important stuff to blow money on than to have certain brand names with 'Engineered for racing' stamped on the box. Thanks tho.
