for tires, i like the maxxis dth. It rolls wicked fast and as long as you are on hard pack you are good. the larsen tt is also nice and quick but offers more traction.

dt spokes, just don't even question it.

hope hubs are amazing for the price (i like the trials version with quicker pickup, not sure if they still make it)

i am not a huge fan of spank rims, i had one kinda flexy set. i really like the wtb i25. doesnt look fancy but it is stiff.

I just built some dirt jumping wheels in 26"...

Hope Hubs Evo 2, Trials in back... paid $300 off Chain reaction
Mavic EX 721 Rims
Sapim Double Butted Spokes- Bought from Dans Comp- can cut custom sizes and cheap but very good.
Bought a 13t single speed sprocket for back to match 28t in front and nice ratio

Wheels have taken quite a few HARD casings already and rims are perfect true- hubs sound good too... btw this is my first post so that should mean something Wink
