Expert Posts: 2457	Was working all summer in Aluminum rims but with the growth of my 3yo, she's in between an 0 and a 00 sooo we set with steel shoes from the EU that are metric sized. Fit great and she's moving out real nicely :) The older finished awesome mare is working in the st croix ultra lite rims ... Love the way they hold up and work for her.

Expert Posts: 2457	cheryl makofka - 2014-12-10 10:05 AM When I have to have shoes on I use eventers over rims as they offer more support. What is the difference between the eventer and a rim? The rims I have been using are beveled for a nice breakover and I haven't had issues with support ... I'm curious and haven't ever used an eventer shoe. How do they support more/better?
