Period.

That's because the barrel sections and the spoke sections are much thinner than what would be considered appropriate for STREET use.

Race tracks are SMOOTH, so thinner walls (which means lighter weight) are OK there.

what makes a wheel a "racing" wheel? are AMERICAN RACING wheels RACING wheels because their name has RACING in it?
