I've got those wheels on my sad little 1800E. It has suffered from the salty roads here in the Midwest (only car I had for 5 years or so,so it got driven in the slushy salt). The body has some rusty spots (front jack members, sills, fenders, front end of subframe rails), and while much of the black paint has come off the wheels I've never seen any unusual corrosion or anything to make me suspect they might come apart. They are skinny and heavy, though. If I ever did anything with the car I'd probably get a set of 240 Turbo Virgo's for it.
