Default ThunderTech 1.9 beadlocks

http://thundertechracing.com/pro2m.htm

Requires installation/removal of only 6 screws to fully lock both beads.

So, any inside info on width Jason? Also, are the bolts 3mm? I'd want to swap out the phillips heads for some button heads.

looks pretty cool, and i like the simple yet effective design. Only six screws... not bad at all.

my only question is, why phillips screws, the screws dont look very scale..but other than that those are looking great. cant wait for the prices to be released.

Sweet, glad I saw this before I spent over 100 bucks on a set of 1.9s, maybe i spoke too soon,

They want $125 for these 1.9 beadlocks, think the new ones will be any cheaper?

Hope they improve on the style of the wheels. They sorta have a hummer effect to them with slots. :neutral:
