which are better,itp,or douglas.i noticed the itp rims cost more.anyone know why?thanks

 

From everything I've heard the ITP's are a bit easier to dent/ding up than the Douglas wheels are....I'm about to get a set of Douglas wheels after doing my searching for answers.....

 

ITP wheels are chromed steel, Douglass are polished aluminum

 

STEEL?????????????/[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img]

 

ITP has some steel wheels, but most are aluminum. I chose ITP 9X9" rear for my sport bikes because they are 1" wider than Stock or Douglas, and have a 1" greater offset. So, you end up with a bike that is considerably WIDER, for greater stability!! (Widen your bike without changing axles!)

 

You get a lot better deal on wheels when you buy them with the tires. RockymountainAtv is pretty reasonable. Go with the .190 rims though.

 

my friend just got a set from rocky mount. atv with fast trekkers on .160 douglas wheels. PERFECT.

 

Yeah, it depends on the type of riding and terrain you ride on. .160's might be good for me also, I would rather go more sturdy just in case. The extra weight is not going to hurt me. I have maxxis razr's on the back of mine. I was looking hard at the fast trekkers though.

 

I would never ride anything but .190's with rolled edges.

 

The razrs are going to last a lot longer than the fast trekkers if they are 6 ply
