Just looking at yoyo selections and saw the YYF Beyond which might have the most steel I’ve ever seen on a bimetal. The Hydrogen Crash is also very high in steel content. What bimetal has the largest amount of stainless that you know of?

Topyo the Top EX has the most steel on a bi-Metal throw by a longshot. The alloy body is so tiny with nothing but steel rims

Ah yes the 90% rim yoyo. That indeed is a lot of steel

At this point its not really a rim anymore. Most of the body is steel with an aluminum hub. The Edge Beyond was definitely the first one that I ever saw to really push the entire rim to steel. It is a very unique yoyo, a treasured throw in my collection.

Klondike seems to be the largest ATM.

Heaviest overall steel rings, heaviest steel rings proportional to the body, or widest looking steel rims ignoring the actual weight?
You’d get three different answers.
Things to consider would be the outlier designs like the TP Seraph (76g MG/SS bimetal), LEX Martian (7068/PC/SS trimaterial with insane 0.5mm thick 7068 walls being reinforced by PC), or just generic super big/heavy bimetals/hybrids like the Sengoku Masamaxx or C3 Mega Crash.
Would just be guessing at any actual answer unless somebody had access to the CAD files or just ripped the rims off their yoyos.
Edit: It’s also worth noting just for OP that the YYF (Edge) Beyond has a hollow space inbetween the steel rims and the AL body. It’s not a solid steel rim. Rims can be deceptive in their appearance. Fractal and Pragma also use that hollow space design. And L shaped rim fits like YYR puts on the Anomaly/Autoscopy/etc can give the appearance of thicker rims if you don’t know what you’re looking at.

yes, that is correct
I’d have to say the YYF Evo, YYF Will, and fetesnice bimetal on amazon
fyi the beyond doesn’t have a hollow space inside the rim. The edge infinity does though.
source: I hammered the rims out on both of them.

oh, oops, I got my edge models mixed up. But yeah the only reason I knew that was because of your photo LOL
That’s fair / then how about something from our lineup
Accelerated was 63.4 grams and 20.90 per side on the bi/metal rims
Centrifugal while being very rim weighted actually doesn’t have a rim to weight ratio as much as Accelerated but looks larger

I do not know the weight of the rings on a BiND I thought it was 2 metals on the rims brass and steel I think? I am not sure but it is a heavy hitter.

Ziz shape, but MGSS.
Plays great, bit too undersized for my tastes but very good nonetheless.

The accelerated sometimes feels like you’re playing with magic floating rings. It’s awesome. So much rim weight.
