They look cool, but ive got a question. With all these "beater" rigs on here, why keep making mall crawler wheels? I think most people would rather see something more commonly seen on the trail. Also these beadlock wheels cost a lot too. I think a plastic wheel would be cool, but i dont know if thats even possible.

Man you on Crack. These wheels are some the most used beadlocks for 1:1's. Try Google Walker Evans Beadlocks..... Well I'm ditching my plastic looking steelies for these.. Crap time to save some money again... Keep these coming...

Yea, but i'm talking about a wheel that would look good on like Project Dolemite. Some kind of cheap beater wheel, you know? Sure, these are used but they are found on high dollar rigs, not the beaters like a lot of builds now. I just cant see these going on like say... a scout build or something.

Yeah, something like a wagon wheel maybe. Im not to picky, i would just like to see an older version wheel instead of all these blingy wheels. Something that would look good on a old yota or something. Maybe something like this...

Yea, i know about those. I put that pic up to give an idea of what kind of wheel i was looking for. But those are the only option when it comes to those types of wheels. i dont want to turn this into an argument, but i would just like to see some older wheels.

You guys want 1.9 or 2.2

For this or the wagon wheel? Both for the wagon wheel.
I agree with NorCal, I'd rather see some more plain jane real world every day average joe wheels. I wouldnt buy these for my RC or 1:1.

I'd say both wheels in both sizes, but maybe do this wheel in 2.2 first and the wagon wheel in 1.9 first.

Cool. I would say either one, but if it was me i would want 1.9. Most of the 1.9 rigs resemble stock type rigs, so a 1.9 would suit the daily driver/offroader type truck which is what these type of wheels are usually used on. But there might be more demand for 2.2s but i dont know. I say make both if you can, but if i had to choose i would want a 1.9.
