For track use, 01 Alcoa's or 02+ Speedlines?

Forged or slightly lighter spun-cast?

CCW's are cost-prohibitive for me with all the other expenditures.

I only drag race however, I purchased the 01 ZO6 wheels last week. My thoughts were give up a slight amount of weight for the known strength of the 01's. I have been told that the weight difference is only 4/10ths of a pound per wheel.

If you are drag racing the forged '01 will suffice. I would not use the cast spun +'02 wheels.

If you are road racing or AutoXing I do not recommend any OEM wheel due to the high side loads encountered. There have been some failures.

Look for a used set of CCW's, Circle Wheels or Kodiak's in the $1400 range.

Besides these race wheels are lighter and stronger and can be repaired much more easily and cheaply if pranged.

CCW should be in line with Speedlines no?

The OEM Speedline outsourced +'02 wheels (spun cast) are NOT equal to CCW's and IMHO are NOT track worthy.

There are other aftermarket Speedline race wheels that ARE very track worthy
