I have an 03 Rincon. Aside from the oem wheels/tires I have ITP 589m/s mounted on c-series wheels. I have puntured two of these wheels in the rear. Ironically, both on the right side. It looks as rocks or other debris is getting caught between the inside of the wheel and the suspension components. I was curious to know if anybody else has had this happen to them. I am now thinking of getting a different wheel if these are that fragile.

 

I haven't done anything like that to my wheels, but yes the stock wheels are very soft. I have quite a few scuffs and scratches from rocks and such on my wheels. So if you do much trashing, like on rocks, you might want to invest in some better wheels for it. Also look into some tires with good "rim protection".

 

Yes this has happen to me but on the left side. I bought another complete set of Rincon wheels that were pull offs, I wished I would have just bought the Maxis radail (I think that is the company name) tires to replace mine. I want to stay with a radial tire.

 

I am actually thinking of getting take offs to replace my c-series since they dont seem to hold up well.
