So I bought some used Volvo BBS Crater wheels to use in my FC RX-7, and went and had them refurbished. I just got them and noticed that the inner part of the wheel is kind of in bad shape.

The top of the wheel.

Should have taken more attention to that. Other than that wheels seem good.

None of those chips seem big enough to cause trouble.

Thanks. Snapped another photo, which I think is the biggest missing part.

well... depends on usage.

daily driving, probably just as good as any oem wheel of age.

travk abuse where they would see hard loads, those chips could inckude microscopic fractures across the wheel which could be catastrophic.

everyday use = sure, why not

track use = no bueno

They are going to be for street use. Planning on buying new Enkei RPF1 for the track.

It is a pain in the ass to work in these cars. Snapped 4 screws just removing the bumper.
