Gigantex are good, but heavy. They market themselves as the most reliable and safe bet when it comes to chinese/TW rims but that comes at the cost of a pretty beefy construction and reinforcements resulting in heavy rims.

I used once Nextie for my fat bike and I wouldn't do it again.

Fairwheel digs a lot FSE rims and the fact that they endorse them means a lot.

To me the best value set for weight and performance are the Schmolke.Made in Germany. The SL 45mm clincher are around 415g, and are on sale in Europe at $500 each. They have 105kg weight limit and generally received very good reviews.
