9" wheels

[Exciter570]

Was looking around for billet wheels and came across some 9" wheels. What is the advantage, if any, of a 9" wheel? Would you gain even more top end speed back with these wheels on a long travel skid? And Da!# they are expensive! At 80-100 bucks a piece you could easily spend 500-600 on idler wheels!! crazy, you can get a set of car rims for that.

Thats a boat load of cash......Some of the designs they cut out don't look very strong. Different forum, Guy was just talking about a set(don't know what kind) but he put them in, took 4 days off work to ride in alaska and It sounded like they broke and side lined him till he could get a stock set driven up to the cabin they were staying at....I'd be pissed! They look great, I am going to have to pass for now. Work to hard for the couple dollars I have. I'd be interested to find out some real world evaluations (from other members) that have used them. You never know about some of the hype on the net.

You can gain some mph with them, keep in mind that you also have to get the offest axle kit for them to work.

Deffinitely not for triail riding, whether they are rubber coated or not, every person I know that has tried them on the trails have just broken them. Not worth the coin IMO.
