Rims
What would be a better choice in rims. Primo Hoola Hoops or Odyssey Duralectras? I do NOT care about weight. So I don't want these weight freaks answering "get the duralectras it will save 6 ounces". I am woundering what rims are stronger. If the Duralectras are stronger is it still worth paying 30$ more per rim to get them? Thanks for your help.

get the primo because the duralectra is the same exact rim as the hazzard lite just with the duralectra coating, (the hazzard lite is weaker than a hula hoop)
