I searched but could not find what I wanted. I have the beadlock rings from rckjeep, but I'm not sure where to cut the rims. I would like to narrow them a bet. Also I have no idea how to keep the tires centered on the rim or even what holds the inside the tire where it need to be. Pics would be great.

Cut the front and back outer ring.Then,cut the little things that go accross the rim just enough to mount the tire

This is going to be quite hard, but it Can be done, but there isn't going to be an inner bead to hold the tires to the wheels. The txt stock rims are quite a bit smaller in diameter than the LSTs. RCKJeeps rims are mainly for show, RCAlloys on this forum use to make a full set of adapters that you could use, I am not sure if he is still making them.

As far a narrowing wheels, you didn't search too hard...
Help needed narrowing stock TXT / Clod wheels

Basically you want to do as the thread shows, then cut the outter lip off of the wheel and glue the ring to it. However, if you only got 4 rings then this is not going to work. RCKJeeps rings assume you have a wheel already that is the correct size and you simply cut off the outter bead and replace it with his rock rings, or simply glue it to he existing bead.

I did not say I need help narrowing my wheels. I said I needed help understanding how to mount lst tires to txt wheels. In my post I did include the fact that I wanted to narrow them, that was only said to let u guys know that if some one could help my they could let me know, if the info they gave me would narrow them. Sorry for the confusion.
