It does actually; you'd rather bend a wheel than break the suspension in a rally, much easier to replace in the field. For the same reason the soccer ball wheels were machined for rally cars.
RAC wheels yes thats what I mentioned but Mike said his were specifically called Forest wheels or similar and he WOULD know . This is Mike Philpott who owns the Souvenir if you didn,t know!!
The wheels are VERY easy to bend as Mike pointed out on the day showing me a dent in the rim from a previous light knock. Suspension would not have been affected anywhere near the small knock the rim had. Mike or Al can clarify for you. e.g. FlipTop on here.
