Default Bogart RT wheels

Hi I have a 2002 trans am totally stock.
I would like to install the Bogart RT rims.
the car is just driven on weekends on country roads
I called Bogart and they don't recommend using the rims with driving around
Does anyone here have them installed for just driving around and have you had any issues with them?

Thanks!

I have them on my 98 SS, but they're my drag set up. I drive on the street with no problems. They are a lite weight wheel to be used at the track. I guess their concern is if you would hit a pothole it could damage the wheel.

I broke one of their wheels driving on the street. I would not recommend it.

Hitting a pothole WILL damage a Bogart. If you're willing to risk it, go ahead......

They're super light and thin, I broke two driving on the street. Take Steve's word for it as I was forwarned too.

Had a buddy damage one very soon after installing them and he is a cautious driver.
