CC rims vs. Stock [standard] rims

Hello All,
After looking at the threads for rims, etc., what's the difference between a stock steel rim and a CC rim? I really couldn't see much difference when looking at pictures here on the site. CC vehicles weigh about 6,000 lbs on average and the similar passenger car of that era ['76 backwards] weighs about 500-1,000 less maybe. So, my question, after my reasoning of the above, is, IS there truly a difference between these rims? If there is, I'd like t know because I'd sure hate to put some stock rims on a CC and then have the rims give me problems, etc down the road. Thanks for your answers in advance. :stars:

The only reason that I'm asking these questions is when I do acquire a pro-car, I'll have some knowledge under my belt and won't totally be in the dark!! LOL
 
the CC rims are the heavy duty GM wheels. they will carry a heaver load. that being said I don't know any one that has had a wheel that failed on there car.
