I bent both my front wheels at the live oak mx race in the woops (crashed, knocked me out, Good stuff lol) and just bought two douglas blue label (.190) thickness and was wondering how they will hold up compared to beadlocks.

190's are the Red Label. The Blue Labels are the thin ones.

they'll bend easier than stock because they dont have rolled lips. you may be better off looking for reinforced rims or save up for a set of hipers.. i know, easier said than done.

I'm with him ^. I wouldn't expect a non-rolled edge to hold up well to MX riding.
