Intro Wheels----Good or Bad?
 

I bought a 65' Chevelle SS a couple of months ago. The previous owner put some Intro's on it. Are they good or bad? Are they made for cruising or can you run them on the autocross/race track?

Uhh ohh, this is gonna be a good thread. :popcorn2: :popcorn2:

Where is Mr. Weld? :unibrow:

Jay! You're nuthin' but trouble Mister!!




To the Original Poster.... I don't normally say anything that isn't "nice".... but Intros? ... Uh..... well.... uh.... er... I mean... uh..... Well. That about says it huh?!?!:lol:

They're good if you really like the look, if you don't like the look there are a dozen plus manufacturers with very good alternatives. :thumbsup:

:headscratch:

Okay............so are they junk?
If they are run hard will they fail? Can they take the load of racing, braking, all that?
Need honest opinions, I can take it:D
Remember, I didn't buy them:lol:
At some point I will change them, just need to save up some $$$. SO in the meantime I need to know how I can drive this car:thankyou:

They will be fine for street driving and autocross. If you decide to become Cole Trickle and road race, you may want to buy a set of racing wheels like a Formula 43 or Forgeline.

Agreed. As a buyer, those two compaines have load ratings that have been track proven. Find out what Intro's is...

LOL - You got the hint! :thumbsup:

There are numerous "better" choices. Qualifying criteria for myself was load ratings, fitment dimensions, style, and price.

I've heard rumor the Intro's make really nice looking hose hangers. :D

I'm sure they're fine for street and occasional track duty. Their race-day usefulness will likely be limited by their weight and eventually their strength.

There are a lot of people running track days on cheap cast wheels that manage to bring it home with all four tires attached, so I'm sure you can do the same with Intros....
