I ride trails a lot and my rims seem to always get dented up and screwed up. I am using ITP .190 rims now. Would I be better off with beadlock rims? Or something else? I just wouldn't want to spend a lot of money and have a rock dent the rim up? I have gone through a brand new pair of front rims in less than a year? Any help would be great.
Thanks

I use ITP "Edge" rims. The edge is rolled over to provide extra metal and strength, like a lot of stock rims do. Of course, they are a heavier. I have had real good luck with mine!

You could have the reinforcement rings installed, OMF and a couple others have them. I have a set of 190's with the rings on the outside only and they're much stronger and keeps the rim from getting dented up.You can send the rims to OMF and have them installed, they have very good looking welds.

If you want a rim that is ging to be super tough and resist dents then take a good look at those carbon fiber wheels by HIPER-TECH i have a set and love their durability and ability to look good still after my careless abuse .
