Looking to put new wheels on the 450. What do you think would be the best buy for fast trail riding t9 baja's or hi-per's?

Price
Weight
Durabilty

 

I've got the T9s and really like them. Strong and light and the rings make them tough ! They are around $85 ea. The Hypers are obviously the most desirable (lightest and stong) but they are pretty pricey. I think they are more for MX racing where weight is super critical. For trails I'd lead toward the T9s........IMO.

 

The Hi-pers due not bend they just explode. It does take a lot too get one to let go but it has happen

 

The only thing about the Hypers is the off-set.... the fronts only come in 3+2.... itd be nice to get a 2+3 offset.

My 2 cents

 

I used douglas red label 2+3 on my Banshee when I raced D-37 years ago and they didnt mess anything up. To me, it just gives you that much more width. Maybe I'm wrong....
