How many bolt patterns can you put on one wheel? doesn’t that compromise structure?

It absolutly does compromise the wheel structure. They are probably(maybe?) fine for street work, but I wouldn’t trust them for anything more than that.

Speed holes, yo.

Weld Draglites notably have always had two patterns and are a legit racing wheel, but that’s probably the limit within sanity. 3? I suspect not safe at all.

I’m more scared by the fact those lug nuts look held on by three or four threads. What the everloving fuck?

Well... that wheel having three 4 lug patterns is effectively the same as a wheel having two 6 lug patterns. It looks like there’s plenty of meat still on there, especially for just normal driving. Remember, circles distribute force really well.

They are also cold forged from what I remember, not cast.

old wheels used to have elongated holes to fit multi-patterns. you just needed shank lug nuts for them. if they didnt fit, get out the round file, and “adjust” them until they fit.........

I think so. Forged center, forged outer, fuse-welded, polished.
