I have 3: Two are stamped 92 and one is stamped 93.
Here's the problem, they are all identical from the rear. They are the first ones that maxcooper posted

I drove around on my cracked wheel for 750 miles
I was worried the last 450 of those miles. The wheel was still fine when I took it off (as in no noticeable problems while driving)
Stupidly enough I didn't take any precautions while it was cracked and I drove in my normal style with a few high speed runs and even the 1/4 mile track for 4 runs!!
I just didn't see how anything could happen since it was cracked but the spoke was still supported. I think it would take a lot for one of these wheels that is already cracked to make the tire blow out.
Any way I got a used 94 wheel from the forum and I feel normal again and my car is happy again.
