Alex R450 Wheelset?

Any opinions on these wheels? I can get a set for $100 from a local spot. The price is definitely on point, the only thing I'm worried about is it's a 32h setup and I'm 200+ lbs.

Yep, riding without the lockring. I was told that it would be ok because the rotafix should have been strong enough to hold the cog on. Obviously not though. Probably not too smart on my part.

Thanks for the replies. I checked and tightened what I could and it seemed to help. I don't have the proper tools for the cog and lockring so I'll stop by the LBS and have them check those out too.
