I'm getting ready to sell my 71 square and wondering if I should use these rims? Are they safe?

Did you really need to ask?



THEY'RE CRACKED!!! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!

:lol:

Yeah 😓 I won't I've been using them for 5 years or so then I switched back to originals and then saw that cracked. What should I do with it? It's the only one out of the four, can it be repaired by someone?

Wow.....looks almost like something was not correct in the lug nut/ bolt radius department.....cracks across the lug holes.

Are rivieras known to be prone to cracking like that?.....uh.....no.....you should not use them. Ray

Frankly, I wouldn't use any wheels from that set until I had a someone qualified do a thorough inspection of them. Just not worth it.
