Tubeless mag wheels look good, and make tire repairs/changes easier.
However, mag wheels aren't as strong as wheels with spokes; therefore, mag wheels are much more likely to be damaged during off road riding.
As Huck stated, the RX3 mag wheels are only available in a 15-inch rear, and an 18-inch front. However, since the mag wheels are much better suited for street riding, the lack of knobby tires for the 15-inch rear wheel is less troublesome.
