    Yeah, I'm gonna have to do something too. My rims are toast, and I've got them tubed because the beads won't seal. Last week I discovered that running low pressure and using tubes apparently doesn't work well together. I think the tube twisted around inside and ripped the stem right off. Anyway, I was thinking that besides looking better, I would be able to go tubeless again too. I assume that's how the modern rims are? Also, is there a difference between the front and rear rims?

Welcome to America, where the biggest is best and even fat people who are too lazy to shift can climb a mountain.

    8 inch aluminum will not fit unless you put about 1/4 spacers on the right side for the wheel to clear the drum, there is enought stud stem there to do this, and it dosnt look that bad, aslo having such a tall taire and wide as well will further protect the rim lip, when I ride I always carry a rubber malet, this way when I do bend my rims I can beat them back right then (only difference is that I have low profile tires)

    Has anyone ever bought from this website?

    http://www.motosport.com/offroad/par...;TRX400EX;2002

    Their prices seem resonable plus is free 2 day shipping over $100 and I really don't want to get into a bidding war on ebay.

    What's with the .120, .190, etc... ? I'm pretty sure that has to do with thickness correct? What would hold up good if you ride in alot of rocky terrian?

    Thanks

    This is the worse of the two... But I guess I just wanna add some BLING as well.
