They’ll work fine, Keisha. The tire in the # MXS39FR is a Maxxis ST radial, and the black modular steel wheel is powder-coated. For frequent dunking, I’d rinse after each launch. Galvanized is still the corrosion king if you’re in salt often, but this steel wheel is a solid all-rounder and is going to hold up just as good as most wheels on the market.
Want me to find a galvanized option in case you want to compare looks and cost?
