Go with OMF, Champion or Hiper Tech. They are all great wheels!

The only ones I have experience with are the Champions that I own. Beadlocks front and rear, rears also have the reinforcing ring. I don't have anything bad I can say about them. I guess if there was anything that I would change, it would be to have both the inner and outer as a beadlock. That would make breaking them down quicker and easier, but that's all I can think of. I like mine. No problems with them, and I ride woods with a good bit of downed trees and rocks.

I would get hiper they are great. They have a 1 year warranty and cheap parts if anything happens to them. I also had champions i liked them alot but alot harder to keep clean and shiny for me. But i f i ever get a new set it will be douglas ultimate billet beadlocks.

THe OMF are nice but you can't fit a mudplug in them, only the Champions. If I'm wrong tell me where I can buy some to fit the 8 inch rears. :p

I have the champions on the rear and hipers on the front til my new hiper rears arrive. Honestly, the champions are a real nice rim. I have absolutely no complaints. I have inner reinforcing rings and they are just about bullet proof. I am switching to the hipers only because they are alittle lighter and I like the prices of replacing the parts instead of replacing a whole rim.

BTW-there will be a set of used champion beadlocks with inner rings for sale here pretty soon.
