Default SICK Custom Beadlocks!

Just got a set from motoworx and love these things 2mm offset more then the stock MRC offset so you gain more then what you would the 1mm hexes So that saved me $20.

Myself and motoworx racing are working together to sell them on the site if you guys are interested they do a great job!

Stock Wheels rings hardware = 0.95 oz


Cross wheels with rings and hardware 5.95 oz

I think they're BITCHEN!

As for the weight being too much. Because the front and rear wheel still weigh the same amount as each other it shouldn't be a problem. Adding weight to them is still gonna be the ticket to getting a good setup. If the stock wheel weigh 6oz a piece and you add 3 oz. to the front and 1.5oz in the rear your gonna get 9oz in front and 7.5 in the rear.
If his new custom wheels weigh 10oz a piece then adding the same 3oz front and 1.5oz rear will get him 13oz and 11.5oz. So, you end up with the same ballance.

The last part of this statement is completely false. Balance can/will be upset. With the weights posted later, being 5 ounces heavier (not sure if that is each or for a pair), you can easily end up being too heavy in the back wheels. Most people keep the back tires pretty light, especially in a MRC.

They look cool, but they can upset the balance by being too heavy.
