Considersing there over $100 bucks a rim I think they would be strong.

worth every penny too. not to mention they are still competitively priced with douglas and itps' highest end wheels, but hipers are much much stronger, and a little lighter

hipers were actually heavy compared to my itp beadlocks.

they are the best wheel out there!

hell...they have a one year warrenty...who else warrenties thier wheels against ANYTHING?

why wouldn't you want to run them if you could afford it.

What size and from where?! That sounds pretty high compared to what everybody I know gave for theirs.

I just looked on HiPer's website. The 9x9 with a 3+6 offset is $218 and a 10x10 with a 4+6 offset is $206.50 The rest are under $200. But, you can get them cheaper than that if you look around. Last time I checked, I was gonna be able to get 2 10x5 single beadlock fronts, and 2 8x8 dual beadlock rears for $680.

I'm glad a lot of people on here buy all their parts new. That means when I upgrade there will be a lot of cheap used parts on the market. Thanks fellas you're saving me a ton of money.;)

Why is it no pros run hipers? J/w, I'm guessing sponsorsship reasons.

Anyway I got Douglas bead locks. I got them for 189 each from motosport.com but I had to get 9icnh, 8 inch is probably cheaper. So far no problems, I think I have like 3 races on them. Check them out, www.motosport.com its around 300 for the rear, free 2day shipping and a free mag subscription.

keep in mind some of the price comes with the warranty Hiper offers. Also this is a modular wheel if something were to happen you can replace the pieces where as an aluminum wheel you will have to replace the whole thing. the 8 and 9 inch wheels should be the same price except the 9 " with the 3+6 offset is more.

Go used if your not particular. Great deals on here if you can strike first.
