    Curious, what do you glean from Jay and this other guy doing that vs Sega and hot rodders? Is it right vs wrong or?

    That’s my reason for thread because I don’t know. Common sense tells me that sixty year old race wheels are not the thing to use on a street car especially a wheel that’s been getting thinner and more brittle over time. But I don’t have a set and common sense hasn’t made much difference in quite a few of my automotive life decisions.
    I was hoping that someone would have some technical insight into magnesium wheels or principles of magnesium and I’d get more information that just opinions.
