douglas .190s or ITP

[300EXrider02]

I am looking at either the infamous douglas .190s, or the ITP t-9 wheels, the itp's look much better than the douglas, but what is everyones opinion, anyone have the itps? heavier? stronger?, I need 9" wheels, but dont want to be bogged down with weight of a rim

are either lighter than stock? thanks

[ridesa02400EX]

they both weigh about the same and they weigh about the same as stock to they are both just as strong so just go with which ever ones you think look better

The Douglas .190 is a little heavier than the ITP .190.. I have ran both and they are both good rims but the feed back that I get from others is that they like the Douglas.

I've had both and I prefer the D's because of the finish but your talking about t-9's and I believe that they have the rolled edge which would make it a little stronger than the regular 190 D's??:confused:

[300EXrider02]

thanks for the replies, I think I might jsut go for the ITP's since they look great:o thanks:D

douglas rims all the way!!!!:macho

[wilkin250r]

I have both. My regular tires are on ITP, my sand tires are on douglas. The finish of the douglas is much better. I don't beat the heck out of my rims, so I can't give you any info on strength, but I've never had a problem with either.

[300EXrider02]

I forgot, are the itp rolled edge like stock? I know douglas isnt

[honda 400ex 69]

does any one know the price of the itps

[Giz400ex]

I think I paid like $70-$80 a wheel, I'm not positive about it but its pretty close:p

[honda 400ex 69]

arent the new baja t-9's 80 bucks a wheel?

[300EXrider02]

yes, not the regular t-9's:o , same as douglas, i think I am getting some if there rolled edge like stock

[honda 400ex 69]

the t-9 baja wheels for the rear are 87 a wheel and for the front are 92 a wheel. those are some nice rims

As for strength, I had a blaster hit my 250r's front wheel in 5th gear pinned at almost a 90 degree angle (severe t-bone). It definately rolled the edge over on my .190 douglas wheels, but didn't bend them, and the tire still holds air fine. I'm sold on the douglas.
BTW- the blaster bent it's frame, my R didn't even bend a tie rod.
