The Carbon fiber wheels are from http://www.hiper-technology.com/. The Hiper-Tech wheels are a little bit lighter than the Champions and cost a little more. The reports and the people I have talk to all say they are very tuff. The one down side is you can not get the 9X9 DBL not enough room for the bolts.

I have the Douglas Ultimate Beadlocks on my R. THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO DOWNSIDE. They are the best wheel ive ever had the priveledge of riding on. I would say spend the extra cash and get beadlocks. I have heard very good things about the hypertechs too. But i cant give you any first hand info. All i can say is i love my douglas. Hope i helped.

I have 2 sets of the hiper-tech rims 1 for my hole shots and a set for my sand tires ,I love them they are very tough rims and they also have the best looking mud plug set up Ive ever seen they r little stainlees steel fastners with a quarter turn lock and I have never lost a plug yet , If u r looking to buy a set of wheels that will perform as well as the mighty DS can with its awsome power than i would take a good strong look at the carbon fiber wheels by HIPER-TECH

U dont need the dual bead lock ,but it does make it really nice when it comes to changing tires its almost effort less .they make a 10x10 dual bead lock for the DS,the 9x9 is a single bead lock,they make a 9x9 dual bead lock for hondas and yamahas but the single bead lock is plenty of rim .
