also what is more important for starting out mx racing a set of tires or a axle???

right now i have the choice between the 2, i will either get a rpm axle or a set of 8x8 champs with turfs tamers and douglas rolled fronts with groved radials..???

Hey bro, call James Lucky, thats where I got my 4-1 Douglas 190, with rolled edge fronts at.....From the looks of it though, I may not need them. With +3 Gibsons and stock fronts, I am at 49.5" You may want to check before you shell out the loot for wheels you dont even need.

Yes im selling the Rear 8x8 with inner rings for 200 for both rims..Also i can get u an RPM axle from RPM for $380 thats with all papers..I have a buddy that gots the hook up with them so he gets a deal..Pm or what ever if u need anything

[400exBro]

alright will do...

380 for a rpm is a good deal but i might just get it from the dealer so i won't have to pay all the shipping and border coasing and stuff...

did forum buy that axle from your buddy, becuase he said he got his for 380 as well???

does that mean your buddy's price will go up as well???
i hope not

I believe it's burgard that sells all sizes of chamion beadlocks on ebay for $115 a piece...I think I'm gonna order some in the next week or 2 for XC racing..:macho

anyone know the anwser to my question??

[400exBro]

omfs are know to leak in around the bead... and don't have the reputation of the douglas rims... or so i was told... i think that the douglas rims are truely the best rims for mx racing... or xc since they are strong and well known...

with the rings going the 400ex rims are you talking about stock???

you could buy them and get them welded into you rims to renforce them but it would be better to go out and buy some new doulgas or omf rims... which ever you perfer...

i don't know if anyone has answered, but douglas does make a 4:1 offset with a rolled edge. Thats what i ran wiht my +3's
