Z rims usage ?

[BENDYCAT ELEVENTEEN]

Were Z Rims used more for freestyle and could you use them as race ?
we see a lot of builds, but i never have taken into account if they have been used on race and not just freestyle

what are your thoughts ?

i raced with them on my kuwahara btd ,had no issues until i melted one driving to pontins
on the bike rack from the exhaust.

Couldnt see why not to fit on a race bike. Any privateer could 've.

I rode z rims for two seasons when I was 12-13

I didn’t really have any issues with em 

I also ran MKS Graph's

Back then I just use to buy what we all saw in mags or what the bloke in the LBS had bought to many off and was trying to shift  and never really bothered if it was race or freestyle specific
