Never had a problem personally and I've had more sets of Weld wheels than anyone on the planet. Are you using spacers with them? What kind of lug nuts are you using and what is the shank length? Do you take corners like you're on a road course? And what size are they. Thanks.

Lug nuts been on my car for years not sure yes I run spacers and they are what ever size fits on an fbody 15x3/5 I believe. Wouldnt be able to take a pic its a hair line crack about an inch long on the inside of the wheel same as last time. No cornering for me I keep about 9 lbs in my et streets with a spool.

On the street I run a lot more air in my tires, IMO 9 lbs is just to low,
