Default To all who worry about drag wheels on the street...

I can't speak for all drag wheels, but my Centerline Convo Pros are STRONG. I have been over numerous bumps, potholes, and every other kind of road obstruction. Never a problem with these wheels. Last night I went through this shithole town that had the road being repaired and no street lights. I went through a huge ******* pothole. Everything on the bottom of the car scraped. I was very worried that it punctured the tranny pan, and I think it may have put a hole in my duals (not positive yet), but the wheels are still as straight as they were when they came in the mail. After hitting what I did last night, I don't think I will ever have to worry about these wheels bending. These damn things are tough. Two thumbs up for Centerline.

My WELDS have taken some abuse, and are still straight. I am switching to Bogarts this winter, and despite thier warnings about not being a street rim, they are very strong. Plenty of them on the streets here in town.
