Hay Kwaka 450, try some Baja rims from Austraco thay have duel strenthing rims inside and out I have punished mine to the absoulte max and thay refuse to flat spot about $200 each from Austraco Thay are a lot stronger than single beads locks and cheaper and also look excellent.

regards Raptor Rules

Hiper rims are the best rim on the market without doubt. Have a look in the Finke post for a pic of my tyre and rim. You will see the damage to the tyre after 120km of riding with a flat yet the rim is as good as new. But a good Douglas rim is an exelent choice aswell and I know that Hardiman has more rims in stock than he knows what to do with give him a ring or Pete from Southern Quads
