I have had and used numerous old Fuchs with no problems as well. I buy good ones, take care of them, and check them regularly as Brant says. I always keep 2-3 sets of wheels around so there are spares.

Like any other wheel used for racing, they should be inspected regularly for cracks (I check my wheels after every event), but I'd use them.
