the problem with the stage 9 was they have a different king pin and people had to modify them to put in grindking pins. I have 2 sets of stage 9s and havent had any problems with em bending and i am a fat bastard.
Yeah 169s are prob the go - 215s turn a bit different to the 169s.
Stage 9s are reputed to crack baseplates around the holes in the middle- but only if you flog the shit out of them. Some people think they don't turn as well as older stage Indys - I've got stage 9,8 and 5s and theere may be some validity to that argument - but they are all setup with different bushings so direct comparison is a bit hard.
169's please!! May as well give it one more bump before I bite the bullet and go pay retail for a set.

Thanks for the link Conan, but I'm just trying to scam a cheap/er set of Indy 169's - by the time I pay postage for the gullwings I may as well just go to the shop and save all the postage/payment/waiting for delivery shenanigans.
