|  Better looking wheels then the Proline Commando series 40?
Hey guys, Since my crawler is waiting for a new battery, i was thinking.....i was throwing around the idea to replace my series 40 Proline Commando wheels. They are a beadlock wheel which i love...but they are kind of lack luster in the "looking good" factor. Are there any other nicer looking series 40 beadlock wheels out there? |

If you want some bling, check out vanquish procomp 40's, or want a mean lookin' wheels go with black axial 40's.

I have checked out the Vanquish Pro 40s and they are pretty expensive but a good lookin wheel. The Black Axial 40s....might search for those and check those out. Both of them will fit the stock hex drive on the clods?

Yea i kind of like those actually. Wouldnt look too bad actually if the center of the wheel was black.  Im just tossing around the idea for right now, might even get another set of tires also but i`m not sure about that just yet and just keep my prolines around for a spare set. The hex drive on those are the 23mm im guessing? I asked if they fit the stock clod hex drive but i totally forgot i had the 23mm spacer for my Commandos lol Are there any more companies that carry beadlock series 40 wheels?

I couldn't find it on jpcustoms. I checked the wheels section and the clod buster section. Maybe I missed it? Link please?

Just found these too: http://www.rc4wdstore.com/2/product_...roducts_id=811 look pretty good, and work with all hex sizes. Anybody have any experience with rc4wd beadlocks? |

Ya, but those are more than twice the price of the rc4wd ones.

im going to defend the rc4wd, i dont think that 3lb is correct, i just weighed the big raw slug we use and it was 3.7 lbs, it just cant be 3lbs each. but in our defence, ours are made here, and we have minumum wage and minimum age laws. |

Hmm...in that case i might rethink the RC4WD wheels. Thanx for the opinions Keep them coming if there are anymore ideas for some better looking 40 series BL wheels. Hey i had another question......i am definitely getting new tires. I have Moab tires but im looking at the RC4WD Rock Crusher 40series tires and im wondering if anyone has any experience with them. They look like a good tire. Are they also taller then the Moabs? Im looking to gain a little more clearance between the diff and the ground.
