There the T-9 .190 wheels with rings welded on the outside, there great for cross country if you dont have the $$ for beadlocks, and alright fo MX but i would go with beads for MX.

Not cheaper but not far off, Baja's are right at $82 - $95 each depending on where you go.

On the Baja's, the reinforcing ring is rolled into the outer lip and not welded or bolted on. They seem pretty strong, maybe a half pound or so heavier than a run of the mill .190 rim. Tires usually make the biggest difference in weight. I've got Razor II's and Baja's on the 450 and they are noticeably heavier than the stock combo.

yeah... the 6 ply tires are where most of the weight gain comes from over the stockers
