As there is a limit on size, shape and construction of an official racer, there is a demand that the wheels be officially approved Z-Glas wheels. However, if you are building a racer for fun, or if you want to start at an amateur level and get in some practice before going for the big time, any wheels will do. But some are better than others, and if you're serious about going for the big time, you'll want to get the best wheels you can for your practice sessions.
