Im gonna be picking up some new rims all around here soon just curious what is a good rim setup for xc riding? i know i probably want .190 and i want a little more offset then factory, i would have +2+1 a arms i think and my wider axle, Running 20s on the back. Not sure if ima go with Douglas, ITP or Hiper. thanks.

4+1 fronts and 3+2 rears. Best set up like that. I wont run anything else EVER!!!

 

OMF's are real nice.

Doesnt seem like very many rims come with that amount of offset, most i find are 3+2 front 3+5 backs, and i suppose ill stay with 10x5 front and 10x8 rears.

You need a front bumper... even a slow crash into a tree could tweak your frame

not trying to thread jack but, im curious whats the major diff between runing 8'' rear rims over the 10'' rear.besides the clearance issues? i now run big ole dirt tires on stock rear rims but im thinking of getting some smaller rims & tires with less sidewall?? i mostly trail but lil field racing/xc.what would better?? thanks again again :cheers:

I didnt see one in your pic and xc racing is through trees really fast so just saying lol

 

Meh most bumpers look like shit on a banshee, if you smack a tree anyways your fucked with or without a bumper haha.

 

Still looking around on rims and shit i want to try and find a rim and tire package as soon as i make my mind up on rims.
