New tires and rims?

[ScooterB]

I've been looking for a new lighter weight tire rim combo. Anyone else notice the lack of options lately? Whats up with that?

Considering SPI rims with IMEX Pinn Dawgs.

Wondering if anyone has tried the SPI rims? worth the money with the warrany IMO. Ive spent more replacing plastic wheels.

Anyone have any experience with IMEX tires?

yes i have noticed that there are a lack of options for MT tires. i was using the 40 series trenchers on tech 5 wheels and love those not so much on grass there a little slippery. then iv had badland tires on maximizer beadlocks and those are pretty good too. i like the beadlocks cause its nice to be able to change tires with out ungluing them. but there still slippery in grass my truck slid all over the place with both but good in dirt and gravel. other then stock thats all iv used.

can't say anything about the spi rims i know there are a few members that have used them I'm sure they will chim in at some point good luck with your tire and wheel search.

I use this combo. Love them and they are cheap and very lightweight!

Forgot to add that they are very tough as well. Never damaged one yet.
