Awesome wheels...super light. Another advantage of wide boy rims is the ability to run a narrower, lighter tire that actually measures out to be the same width as a wider, heavier tire on narrower rims. Therefore, any weight savings on a narrower wheelset would be lost in the wider, heavier tires; tires that also add more rotational weight – the most noticeable of all increased weights. And narrower, lighter wheels won’t deliver the added cornering traction and predictability, tire burping protection, braking control and impact resistance. Therefore, depending on tire selection, even weight weenies can benefit from wide rims!!

Currently ride them on my Yeti trail bike. Best wheel set I've owned and ridden. In perfect condition as I am not an aggressive rider :-)

BENEFITS OF WIDER RIMS:
Dramatically increased traction
Reduced rolling resistance
Less tubeless ‘burping’
Works well with Plus tires up to 3.0"
Stiffer, stronger wheel
Lighter than most narrow aluminum rims
Better braking control
Improved flat protection
More predictable feel
You can run a lighter tire with similar durability
Hookless bead rims are far stronger
Easy to mount tubeless with just a floor pump
