Default Best wheel options beside vanquish?

Been looking to buy some 2.2 wheels for my pitbulls to go on my wraith. I see vanquish has been out of stock for awhile. What others are recommended?
Seen these are expensive I want to buy the best I can the 1st time.
Thanks.

A wheel that uses Vanquish Product's SLW hubs.

What purpose do the hubs serve?
I'm thinking more strength?
If rather buy a quality wheel with most benefit if there is any over other good wheels mentioned.

Slw hubs have many sizes to have multiple offset options!

The Methods have a nice clean inside (no lock ring) which is a big plus in my book. Are there others that use the same trick/system? Found EZ-loc already, but I don't like the front ring.

Thinkin about it...would be nice to see the EZ-loc rings in various depths. That way you can play with the total rim width and /or offset.

I'd love a set of methods. But everywhere I look they are out of stock.
Is vanquish behind or done making these?

Vanquish makes their products in batches, so you might see them coming back in stock this week or next year, it just depends on what is in demand.

Right now it seems like they're getting stock up for the Yeti.

I thought the yeti might take over for a bit.
I she some other 2.2 wheels available. I might have to grab some.

Here's another for TSS wheels. Uses slw hubs and no issues from my set of Robbie Gordon's. There are a ton of screws though, as they complete the look.
