I have DT R460 on two bikes and those are very good rims. Dont know about the hubs. I think the Formula ones are cheap and good. A higher flanges lets you have shorter spokes that give a stiffer wheel, at the expense of the hub being heaver. I dont care at all about that since I run 32 spokes, nor care about hub weight, so I would pick the cheaper one. Or you can pick the looker if you are into that.

What hubs would you recommend for SSCX wheelset for Singlecross? Thinking about DT R460 rims and Novatec rear track hub (any idea what is the difference between A166 AND A186) and some Novatec road front hub, any idea which will be the best in terms of bearings durability for muddy and winter conditions?
Also, any difference between high and low flange rear hub for SSCX? Novatec A266 is another option, but with low flange and a few grams lighter.
