Sweet, douche bag. Way to not answer his question at all!.. You didn't even say who made them.
Rey, I have heard good things about the lindsey racing wheels, but I have not heard of the true design wheels before. Are they made from the original centers like lindsey does?

I've had four sets of Lindseys. No failures of any kind with lots of track use.
If Tru-Design is the Colorado outfit, I've heard good things about them, too.
A less expensive alternative are the Rota Fox replicas -- they're about half the price of the other options. But they weigh a little more and have less of a 'track record,' so far.

Both good - Gary Stratton in Orlando and mirage racing in california make em too - Gary's have seen time on the track. Both True Design and Lindsay are solid and are the better known providers - but mirage and stratton are well known in racing circles.

Three-piece wheels use bolts to hold a center to two halves. I think Mirage only does three-piece wheels.
Two-piece wheels are welded together -- a Fuchs center to a single-piece barrel, usually.
