I bent a stock rear wheel on my DVX today so am now in the look for a pair of rear wheels :mad: .
I love the looks of the ITP C-series and now that they are avaiable in 9" version they would be perfect. My only concern is how strong are they? I mostly trail ride but alot of the terrain is rocky. Or should I spend the little extra money and just get a pair of the T-9's?

I've read that the stock wheels are pretty tough but I can't believe how easy it bent. Infact I am not really sure when or where I did bend it :confused: . I can not remeber ever hitting anything that hard.

If you like the looks of the C-series, then you'll also like their durability. My friend has a set on his 400ex and has went through 2 sets of rear tires already with only minor dings on the rims. They feel a little heavier than regular rims though, but well worht it. My T-9's only made it through a month of riding, and aftereach ride Ihad to break out the hammer for them to hold air.
