Default KMC Rockstar Wheels..?

Does anyone make a wheel such as these black or chrome..? Possibly custom made ones..?



Now I know RC4WD makes some rockstars but the beadlock gear design it comes with is just to thick (hides too much of the actual wheel for my tastes) Now if there is a thinner beadlock you can use with them that would be ok. I am not so much worried about the centers, I can cut Nautical Star decals for that. Thanks in advance...

If someone owns these rims already is it possible for you to post pictures of them without the beadlock attached..? I could always have a set of beadlocks made to fit the RC4WD rims...

twisted... he is talking about a 2.2 wheel looking like the KMC wheel. The only one is RC4WD's Rockstar, but it has too fat of a beadlock ring for his tastes.

WVB, contact 62PYRO. He can make you a set of custom rings for the Rockstar's.

Try looking in one of JIA's build threads... something to do with a Bushwhacker body and those wheels I remember. Not 100% though.

Thank you, I will give that a try... EDIT: He only used the Rockstar for a spare tire. But I will send him a PM to see if he can take the picture for me. Thanks...

Hey I tore them apart the other day, so here is the pic as promised. This is with the bead of the tire in the proper position. Hope it helps!

Wow!

Every time I think that you've reached a pinnacle in your designs, you somehow manage to raise it to another level!
