I recently bent one of my stock wheels on the front of my wolverine. I am looking for a more durable, stronger wheel. I ran ITP alum wheels for a while, and though they were plenty tough, I didn't care for the offset and went back to stock for tight woods riding. I was thinking about the douglas .190 red labels but not sure if they are offset or fit like the stockers. Does anyone have the red lables or can tell me about them or anyother option. Also didn't like the way the ITP's exposed the rear disc. thanks.

 

Anyone help me out with the wheel situation?? looking for a better wheel with same offset as stock. thanks.

 

I ran stock Honda Rubicon wheels for 2 years and loved them. They are very light and seemed to be very strong as well. I also run a 10" tire up front which helps protect the wheel better.

 

Airwolf, I think I have heard that about the rubicon wheels before. Do you know if they have the same offset as stock wolverine wheels do. Are the rubicons aluminum? Whats with the IRS? sounds like a project. thanks for the reply Airwolf.

 

I run douglas aluminum wheels,with OMF reinforcing rings, very light, very tough, and look great. You can buy wheels with factory offset right from OMF with the rings already welded, I had mine welded on after I bought some wheels, turned out to cost more than if I just bought it already welded up from OMF. Check out my pictures, got a good side view of the rims and 25" Maxxis Sur Tracs.

 

eja- I am not sure of the exact offset on the Rubicon wheels, but they seemed to be the same offset to me. They are aluminum and have a "bullet hole" style. I think they look better than a lot of aftermarket wheels out there.
The IRS project has been just that, but is finally done and have a completely transformed machine now. It is an absolutly night and day difference from the stock setup.

by the way- I still have 3 of my Rubicon wheels (I lost one- long story) They are in almost mint shape. - let me know if you are interested
