I mean, I've seen cases where HREs were cracking, so I guess anything would fail if some strong force applied to it, just like snoopy said.

This is true, but that doesn't mean that every wheel has the same strength.

OT, does anyone know the size and offset of the stock 350z track wheels?

Yeah, but HRE is not exactly a race wheel...they look nice though.

Rotas are fine. I'd just suggest a thicker spoke one like the p45 (nice nismo copy). That would look nice and perform well.
