ITP Baja's can take a lot of abuse.

I ride pretty freakin' hard, and on some pretty nasty rocky trails, and my ITP T9 Baja's have held up very good. I can't imagine beating my bike up any more than I have, and my wheels have held a bead for a year and a half. I know everyone is going to say to get some beadlocks or carbon fiber rims, but I can say my Baja's have been an excellent wheel.

HiPer? Heard they are best for that stuff because they can flex out of shape and spring back to it rather than bend. But enough force will crack them. On a side note, how hard do you hve to land to bend the axle? I've done some crazy sideways landings and plenty of hard landing and its straight as an arrow. Wheels are slightly tweaked. Front wheels on the other hand mine are rediculously bent.

i have tried just about every wheel out there..i think the STRONGEST wheel is a ITP beadlock. i have baja's on my drag bike and love them. i have a set of hipers i just got in at my shop that i havent had a chance to try but if there are half as good as i have heard we might have a new king of the hill when it comes to wheels
