Have you ever raced with those wheels? Ive only ever run the typical dish wheels because an employee at a hobby shop told me the spoke style ones break. I think the spoke wheels look a lot better.

Hey guys just added a new pipe and manifold to my engine on my TKI 3. The header is short so the whole length of the exhaust is on the shorter side which creates a small angle that the pipe/header sit on because of the tki 3 tray/pipe hanger set up. There isnt a perfectly straight fit now with the pipe/header connection. Im worried that there could be a small potential air leak because of this? Is it okay that its not perfectly sealed straight?

The only way to find out is to run it. It won't cause permanent damage anyway. Have u tried rotating the header up so it pulls the pipe away from the tank?

hey man
thank you again for nice words

No i have not raced those wheels...but these wheels were used all over the place in the past...and if they broke or not....i really cant say...but i cant see why they would be more likely to break than the dish wheels.
I always thought that they started to use the dish wheels because of them beeing less prone to let sand and dirt inside the wheel and around the "bearing" area....

I used to spoke wheels in the past as well my issue with them wasn't breaking but letting rocks inside the wheel and getting jammed up between the wheel and hubs
