    Rim in question is off the 2012 TXC250. The boy has managed to completely annihilate the rear rim.

    The search for a replacement keeps ending up at a OEM Husky rim; rather pricey.

    I do have a good contact at Excel but he has no listing for a replacement. At first he was pretty sure the FES433 would be the one; 2.15 x 18'' 36 hole European drill, no go. I sent them the following pic of the stock rim and now they are thinking FES422 should work. Their comments were that starting in 2011 Husky started using a different drill pattern and it's the same as used by KTM. This is now considered a Japanese drill pattern...still 2.15 x 18'', 36 hole.

    Can anybody shed some light on whether I'm stuck going OEM or if any of the aftermarket ones will work? I do believe the stocker is considered much stronger than a replacement may be, but worth twice the price?

    Thanks,
