ANYONE KNOW OF CARBON FIBER DS650 RIMS, AND WHERE I MIGHT FIND THEM?

Ive heard the off set options make it pointless

 

my friends hyper-techs had a problem with thin walled tires. We couldn't get a bead to seat, mainly because the compression ring wouldn't compress enough to seat. They worked great on desert tires, but the lighter weight sand tires were a nightmare.

So are they worth it or not. I'm a woods racer using 6ply tires. I should not have any bead problems but I can't make the DS any wider than stock or Ill be running up trees. So rims that offer +2 and bigger off set are no good for me. I Know I'm kind of out numbered in this forem, Because I think most of you are dune riders. We don't have much sand over here in Pa. Thank you all for your input.

GNCCDS,

I think "Air" has a set on his DS. You might want to PM him and ask what he thinks of them or if he has had any problems.

 

I have heard that they break easily besides the -2 inch offset

 

Sorry no help on the wheels, but was woundering where you are at in pa. I am also in pa and ride a DS. I live near the poconos. Lost a lot of our good riding areas and was woundering what area you are in and what kind of riding areas you have.

 

Ive got a set sitting in my garage for the last 2 years - rode them once, lost a bead, ruined the tires, and due to the offset, rolled her over - nobody got hurt - but I was thinking of turning them into planters for my apartment. Dont you think it would be cool for a single guy to have CF rims for planters?
