Can you please let me know what are the available weight options for the SMS75? I know that there is the "SMS Weight Plate" but I need to know if there are other options (perhaps traditional waist weight pockets) especially of the diver decides to use this SMS75 as backmount BC instead of SM.
 
You can use traditional pockets of ditchable weight like;X deep, dive rite, etc. also a weighted sta or weight belt. Lots of options.

what I always love to use is the DUI weight & trim harness, where like suspenders and 4 velcro pockets, easy to ditch weight if needed...

I am asking if Hollis has these pockets/options for this specific BC.

Would a BC weight pocket from Dive rite work for this Hollis SMS75?

(BTW, I am not looking for a separate weight belt, I am looking for an integrated type option).
 
BurhanMuntasser this BCD as designed for sidemount diving, that is why you do not want to attach weights where the tanks will sit close to your body- the only option is weight pouch that screws into back plate- mine has 4 pockets for weights, can put in upto 4lbs. each.
 
Look at the integrated weight pockets that the SMS 75x has. Might give you some ideas.

other than the hollis backplate weight pouches you can attach shoulder top dumpable weight pouches or add weight on the cambands of the tanks your are rigging.

what else would you need?
