I just bent my front rim on my 02 400ex. I am in need of some rims. I do only woods riding and want a good strong rim for cheap. I was looking a Douglas .190 red label's. Can any please advise me if these are GOOD woods rims? Thanks for your help!!!

Those are good as long as you dont hit trees and stuff with them. lol, otherwise i have had good luck with my quadroks and i know others have had good luck with the shamroks and multiple others. good luck choosing. steve

I do tend to bounce off of trees and logs at slow speed, that are on the ground during tight woods riding. Would I be better off just getting a used stock rim from ebay? Thanks for the quick reply..

with rims and bending, it's basically all about how much you are willing to shell out.
Have you tried to straighten yours out any? how badly is it bent?

Make sure you at least get a rolled edge rim. I had good luck with ITP Baja wheels, raced 4 years of XC with them. I have Hipers now, I know not cheap, but still have the Baja's as my spares. The stock Honda rims are very good rims, look on ebay or craigs list.
