got a set of weights made for one of the wheels so far. i think the weights make them look like their big brothers in the 1.9 and 2.2 classes. these are some real nice wheels! nice work Don.

Great Idea!!! Nothing like starting the morning off with gunpowder and bullets!!!
I filled mine up with solder to add more weight... After i disarmed them first!! Short video!


And just put little squares of double sided tape to hold them in.

Looks like those are rimfire .22s...Good thinking you guys.

It wouldn't surprise me here if this is a bit of foreshadowing of what more's to come from BWD.


I like seeing the picture of the back of the wheel - no more little lame plastic hex insert. That's another selling point entirely.

I did not use a 22 the shell was to loose. I used 17 hmr and cut the case down popped the primer then added solder. The 17 round fits nice and snug and if you position the firing pin strike mark out toward the bead the beadlock ring will hold them in place with no tape needed.

Thanks for adding the wheel weight ideas up guys...I intended to use 17HMR for these...nice catch I actually have engineered a whole new weight design...that I hope to unveil soon.

The next order is one month out fyi. That said, I still have plenty in stock. All orders have processed (including all orders through current) and I just finished updating paypal with shipping notifications, even tho lots went out yesterday.

Keep the pics coming guys...and if you have a sick shot please submit for a chance to have your rig featured on our site

I love these! grr... I might just have to break down and get a set now and deal with the wraith of the wife!

Don, you mentioned something about weights to be sold with them, are those far out? I don't have ammo, and hate to buy some just to make weights
