| Did you give a thought to making them like a real hummer wheel (beadlock) ? I'm no machinist (sp?) but I would think they would be fairly easy to make... Edit...Anyone got pics of an assembled and unassembled hummer beadlock? |

| wrong hummer wheel and DAMMIT thats the third idea youve taken from me! please make it a functional bedlock AND have 8 lug hubs and have studs coming out of the wheel. heres lots of good reference photos for the real hummer beadlock. http://pirate4x4.com/tech/billavista/PR-Hummer_Rims/  Diagram of the complete assembly: 1 Clamp Nut 2 Outer Rim-half 3 Valve Stem 4 Valve Core 5 Beadlock Insert 6 Tire 7 Tire Bead 8 O-ring 9 Inner Rim-half 10 Stud Last edited by obijuan; 03-11-2008 at 04:14 PM. |

It would be pretty sweet to get some 2mm or 2.5mm screws and put them through the 12 "lock" holes and then put a small nut on each on the outer face so they look just like the 1:1 lock bolts. I agree on the 8 lug also....if you guys want to make these really scale, they'll need to be 8 lug and not 6  | |

| I would haveto agree with Obijuan, do them right, it will be worth the extra work. If not beadlock, at least make them look authentic. Scale is very important. |

| beadlocks I'd like to see them in a 1.9 beadlock over the standard wheel. I hate to glue tires. if you run no glue they would have to fit real tight & still may slip under load. Beadlocks would be way better i.m.o. Maybe make both? |
