[Closed] What rim after a Crest?

The Stans Crest rim (345g & 21mm internal) on the back of my Yeti 5 has a couple of dings and now a wobble from Friday's ride. It's survived 3 years of riding and now I'd like a change.

Just wondering what to replace it with? I would like something a bit wider (generally run 2.35" tyres).

Was looking at the [b]Ryde Trace Trail [/b] rim (£88, 405g & 25mm internal) but my LBSis struggling to get one (out of stock).

Anything else I should consider?

Flow from Stan obviously?

I've got the wider version - which is great - but this could be more up your street.

Pacenti TL28 look interesting. 23mm internal & 380g. Shame the 26" ones are twice the price of the 27.5 ones.

Superstar look a bit heavy (23mm & 480g).

Spank oozy 295 maybe:

I've got some and they seem fine. Not had them long though but they seem to be round and a reasonable weight.

the pacentis are light and cheap... I dinged the rim bed on mine... running 35 psi. They are made of cheese. I'll be drilling it and trying to run it ghetto procore with a tub now that I don't care about it...
