That wheel design doesn't look very strong. The spoke looks really thin by the center. Also, the finish on it is pretty bad. Orange peel like crazy.
Really, the gun metal grey centers are peeling?

I agree the spokes are thin but the strength of the wheel is also dependent on the quality of the alloy used to manufacturer the wheel as well as the design. I certainly would not use these wheels to race the Z as an 18" would be better suited for this purpose. I know that the USW Forged wheels are made of T6 tempered 6061 alloy which has a very high tensel strength.
