Which wheel do you like better, Pedrini or Mahle? I think the Mahle would offer more cooling because of the larger openings.(IMG:style_emoticons/default/cheer.gif)

I know you didn’t ask but 2.0 Fuchs are much better. Forged, not cast. Big difference in strength. Many Mahle’s and Pedrini’s are bent. Fuchs much less often.

QUOTE(mepstein @ Jun 22 2024, 07:10 AM)  I know you didn’t ask but 2.0 Fuchs are much better. Forged, not cast. Big difference in strength. Many Mahle’s and Pedrini’s are bent. Fuchs much less often. However, the Fuchs will crack. I have two cracked 4 Lug Fuchs. One is now an end table in our den. The other is on the wheel rack in the garage. Betty found the first one on her car one day when washing it. It was a beautifully refinished wheel, and when we took it off, the crack ran all the way across one of the paddles. I swapped it for the spare, and turned it into an end table for the den. So carefully check them for cracks. A failure at speed would be a terrible disaster. |
