The DT Swiss XM 551 is an extra-wide aluminium all mountain rim made to give plus-size and wide trail tyres a broad, planted footprint for maximum grip and control. It is built strong for demanding trail and all mountain use.

Highlights

  • 40 mm internal width gives plus-size tyres a wide, stable, well-supported profile
  • Tubeless ready (TC) hooked bead for confident low-pressure running
  • Welded joint and non-eyelet PHR interface for a strong, durable build
  • Disc specific, with a Presta valve hole
  • Rated to ASTM category 4 and a 120 kg system weight

Construction

The rim is welded for an even, consistent bead seat and uses the DT Swiss PHR (non-eyelet) spoke interface, which spreads spoke loads across a broad area so the wide rim stays strong and torsionally stiff.

Compatibility & fit

This is a 27.5" (584) rim drilled for 28 spokes, suitable for disc-brake plus, trail and all mountain wheel builds. It is hooked and tubeless ready (TC) and takes a Presta valve. Pair with compatible DT Swiss spokes, nipples and PHR washers for the intended build.

DT Swiss covers this rim with a 24-month warranty against material and manufacturing defects from the date of purchase. Normal wear items, including tubeless tape, are not covered. The DT Swiss crash-replacement (Fair Share) programme applies to carbon rims only and does not apply to this aluminium rim.

For any warranty support, please return the item to Tune Cycles and our team will handle the claim on your behalf.
