Default Beadlock help

I've been out for a while ad just got sucked back in and had multiple questions and found the answers to most of them but still have one left.

I am looking for opinions on wheels for my SCX10 Wrangler G6 and am really having a hard time finding a decent answer.

All help is appreciated

Locked Up Rc has the most scale/realistic wheels on the market. They also have the scale hardware, lugnuts, and hubs to take the wheels to the next level. Many options of wheel and rings to choose from. I absolutely love their products and their customer service is second to none.

Lockedup, ssd, and vanquish are all great choices. Whatever wheel you choose I would atleast get some that are slw compatible.

Locked Up has plenty of sizes of hardware so you can easily scale out most any brand of wheel. If you end up with SLW wheels, Locked up has awesome scale acorn nuts for the DLW hubs.

Wow this a name from the "old days" I also know about the getting sucked back in. I really like the SSD stamped beadlocks, good price and they are pretty easy to mount tires on. They are not a flashy wheel but work great for the price. Pit Bulls with CI foams are a good starting point for an all around tire, IMO.

SSD definitely has some great and strong products and a bit more affordable than VP. However, after running Axial stock 1.9/ 2.2 beadlocks, rc4wd 1.55/1.9/2.2 stellies, rc4wd true scale 1.9/2.2, 2.2 CF open channel beadlocks, 2.2 CAC full polished aluminum beadlocks, 2.2 CAC black delrin 10 hole beadlocks, VP KMC XD Reskinned 2.2 beadlocks, VP LIMITED EDITION burnt orange 1.9 scaler beadlocks, and also Axial 40 series beadlocks....on various tires from rc4wd, every Pitbull tire, Proline, Voo Doo Ottsix, Hot Bodies Sedonas and Rovers....I must say Vanquish hands down were always easiest to mount without headaches and I always use CI foams too.

Thank you for all the help everyone. I have some looking to do, I have owned many sets of Vanquish wheels and they are great. Might try something different this time.

I love the RC4WD steel beadlocks, but find using VP inner clamping rings with them is the way to go for all but RC4WD tires, makes them easier to mount up and no cut tire beads.

Yes they are good wheels, but rc4wd is not much more and is perfect weight without adding any weight.
