I am in the process of purchasing new wheels and tires. As of now, I am set on WTB AM Strykers with weriwolf tires. Any thoughts or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

We need more information.
How much do you weigh.
What sort of terrain will you be riding? (smooth, super rough and rocky, downhill trails, xc trails, etc)
What do you want out of the wheels? (stiffness, strength, low weight, tubeless use, etc)
Are you upgrading, or replacing something you broke?
Are you hard on parts?
What width tires do you want to use?
What’s your budget? -

I ride mostly all mountain. I like it super rough, rocky, jumps, drops, and fast pace (I swear this is not a Craiglists add). I want strength, stiffness, and tubeless from the wheels, I do not care about weight. I would say I am alright on parts. The tires are 2.2 TCS wolverines. My budget is $750-$1000. I am upgrading my Trance X2. I approximately bench 605 (last max with no spot), squat around 9, and max 114 pushups.
