| Which beadlock wheels for Wraith kit tyres?
I see that the kit requires the tyres to be glued to the wheels! Could you use the beadlocks from the honcho and will they fit ok? I feel the tyres will come loose after some time if glued! EDIT: Ok I figured the Honcho beadlocks will not fit as they are 1.9 but will the kit tyres be ok to fit to any 2.2 beadlock wheels? Last edited by mr lee; 10-13-2011 at 12:46 AM. |

Would like to be sure as I would need to buy them and would not like to waist money trying them out.

About any 2.2 beadlock will work. However what you need to watch for is the offset of the wheels. The axles are wide and you will want as narrow of an offset as possible. Many of us run Vanquish wheels because we can easily adjust the wheels to the width we want. A Vanquish wheel with a 225 or 350 hub works great.

Harley correct me if I'm wrong, but on your list you have that you use the vanquish 475 hub's with the vanquish ssz 11 2.2 black wheels. Was this by trial and era that you switched over to the 225 hub's. Cause I'm in the process of getting some wheel's and I kind of like these 4 so far. I need some info for the hub's on which one or should I go ahead and get the 225, 350, and 475 set's and trial and era myself. I'm new to the game and not familiar with the whole offset narrow stuff.

Just so you know, Vanquish SLW's (1.35" wide version) take 600's to clear. The 1" version and .75" version can use narrower hubs as mentioned above. |

I plan in running slw's since I hate gluing tires.

I am running berg offset beadlocks. Standard inner and outer rings. I had to bevel the inner ring to clear the rod end...That is the narrowest I could get it with standard style beadlocks. This is also using the type of drag link that bolts the tie rod to the link and not stacking them on the knuckle.

Now for anyone else that has em! with the slw's in a 1" wheel, 225's are the closest to stock and 350's bump the overall width a hair more? | |

1" SLW with 225 is stock roughly. 350 hubs increase track by .25" | |

okay. these measurements are rough but will give you an idea. the stock wheels i have measure almost 1 inch from inside the hex to the back of the wheel. the proline titus wheels measure 1/2 inch in this same area. so the prolines widen the track 1/2 inch each side (1 inch total) DAM i didn't think it was that much difference!!
