Looks awesome those are the ones I was looking at to buy but I dont have the cash. I think with those wheels you cant face the tapered part in it has to be the flat part. Also would you by any chance have the stock wheels?

Andy, ITP makes the right ones. I got mine at Powersports in Tampa. If you turn those over and use them, put a flat washer under the nut to give it a larger surface area on the new rim.

Crack the Hipers? Hipers are 3 times stronger than Aluminum wheels and have a 1 year free replacement warr. Thats for bend or breakage. But anyway the wheels look good.. I like the black and I like that mud plug better than what comes with the Hipers.

Looking good. Now you need to go out and give them the Andy test. To see how good they are.

I questioned that, but why dont more MX bikes have them on there???The guy I talked to had about 8-10 bikes at his shop and none of them had hipers

If you look close there is a mushroom lip on the back side of the nut so you cant put a socket on it

thats an incredible deal! and to think i was going to buy 4 stock wheels for $270 for another $100 I could just pick up this and have something better. Are they .190 thickness?

There is the answer to your question right there 365.00. My hipers were 700.00 and thats a deal for them. Also I belive that with all the diffrent tires for MX because of track cond. it makes more sence to run these.

No I dont think so these quads had everything you could do to them.They were pro race quads.They were loading them into the trailer to go to bolingreen kentucky for the AMA-ATVA race. But I dont care,if I bend them I will buy some hipers

I have seen alot of MX quads using these wheels, But I cant see Cracking the Hipers. What ever.. the wheels look good and Are deffiatly stronger than the POS ITP t9's.

I bent the lip on my t9's a week after I got them. I like the hipers but they are to expensive for me. I like the one's you have on your quad. And for a decent price to.

I managed to turn my stock front wheels into wobbling ovals. They are bent so many different ways on pavement it shakes violently. Supposedly stock wheels were 1 of the strongest non beadlock wheel. I beg to differ because I bent them real bad with 7psi in them and bent them more recently even with 10psi. With more pressure it seems they are pushing in turns more but it could just be in my mind.

nice choice Andy....you dont need Hipers for MXing...the are good for taking hard hits on stumps/roots/logs/etc...

Those are good wheels and a damn good deal on them compared to the Hipers. I payed almost 800.00 for my hipers, that's crazy money for wheels. But I love them. I've bent my RPM Dominator axel, but those rims are hard to damage, and I'm hard on them. I'm gonna put some Douglas on my son's bike.

Where have you been Chris? You been hittin Bartow a lot?

He is dusting off his bike and cleaning it.
and polishing it. He is taking it down to the gears.
And cleaning it and making sure its ready.
No he traded it in for LTR 450.
I can't believe Suzuki only gave you 37.00
for it. That would piss me off too.
5700.00

Nice Dave..... :bs: No I haven't been riding in the past 2 months. I broke on final practice at Bartow and didn't make the race. We've finally figured out that the motor was heat seizing. So I'm doing a complete rebuild. Hopefully be back to riding by the following weekend. Work has been bad lately so it's taking me longer to get all the parts I need.
I will be back in action soon, trust me.............. this is killing me.
