I know what you mean about trying to save on cash for other go fast goodies, but don't comprise your safety and the safety of others.

How would it compromise anything if you throw on some worthy tires??

I can't see the rims themselves beings tructurally dangerous, and if you only make the occasional trip to the strip, why not?

impress 'em with your slip, not your wheels.

Using the wheel with a drag tire should be fine and even if the wheel doesn't weigh a ton less the tires will.

Umm if your car can lift the front tires do NOT USE the spares. I had to use my spare recently until the tire shop opened to warranty to warranty a dead tire a a very small rough spot on the road, not quite a pot hole, managed to destroy my spare wheel while doing 35 mph in a 45... They are friggen cheap...
