Default Vanquish knuckle weight compatibility with SSZ-9 wheels

Hello, I am building up my XR10 little by little, and it's time to get wheels.
I like the method of running the Vanquish brass knuckle weights as this takes the weight off driven wheels. But as I am trying to keep the overall rig weight down I am looking at the SSZ-9 wheels. I don't really know if there lighter but they look lighter and and they look cool. Does anybody know if the SSZ-9 wheels with their inner beadlock fit with the knuckle weights?

Why were the SSZ-9 wheels designed anyway? What was the purpose behind going to inner beadlock rings?

I have called Vanquish about this and they didn't have a solid answer, they recommended I put a post on here and ask Brandon or Harley if they had some light to shed. Thanks

The knuckle weight will fit, and they made them because they look so badass.

Pretty much just for a different look, bead locks on the outside are hard to scale correctly.

they are tougher to mount than the SLW's but look better imo.

harley is running 460 hubs and is able to get 4ea. 1/8 rings on.
