Wow, you've raked up a very old post here, and being an old fart I have no idea what zeff means or what your angle is...?
I don't have Wizard wheels, and I also don't understand the "angry" emoticon...
But if you're looking for my opinion, what can I say - I have two sets of A-Line wheels which were dirt cheap - R4600 a set.
Sure, I changed my mind, and learnt what an 86 is all about - I now do serious track sessions once a month and between the two sets of wheels they've seen 750+ track laps.
I'm a track addict, and my wheels are working great for me.
BTW - A-Line is the official supplier of wheels for the INEX Legend racecars.
I love 'em - no hassles, and they handle the heat very well.
Heat - huh? To give you an idea of heat - recently at Zwartkops I came off the track after a quite easy session and needed to change wheels and tyres to go home. Knowing they had to cool down before they can be handled, I drove up to the ZOC stand on the tabletop and chatted with the marshal for 30 mins, then went back to change wheels. And the wheels and wheelnuts were still almost too hot to handle.
If you're a poser, you probably shouldn't go A-Line, but they do have a massive range - about 40-50 styles.
If you want working wheels, you'll find them affordable and effective.
YMMV
