What's The Difference Between A Two Piece And One Piece Rim, I Know That One Has One Piece And The Other Is Two Pieces, But Is One Stronger Than The Other Is There Any Draw Backs On Having A Two Piece Rim?

are you talking about rims with a center cap, or the old style split rims from the 60's

2 piece rims are usually stronger and lighter since they can use different alloys or something like that. Not really sure of the science behind it all. there are 3 piece wheels as well.

2 piece rims are considered more dangerous but are good when you have a blowout and need to change tires without changing rim.

the two pieces are worse for high power applications and off roading, correct?

Actually, Modular (more than One piecve) are stronger and safer IMO. They are just more expensive!
