|  which is better? ok I've looked up both the pro line 8 shooters and the axial beadlocks, there about the same price but I've heard alot about the 8 shooters always having 2 screws stripped, but there nicely narrow but what about the axial? can you narrow it easily? what about it's srews? do they get stripped? whats better? comments please? (nothing to dirty  ) |

|  I don't think I would buy either.... I hate the non counter sunk screws and wide rims from axial but i hate even more the bull shit stripped screws from proline! I have both so I know... It's not even that the screws come stripped it's more that they stripp so bloody easy! Save some more money and buy something better and support our board! Buy some mayhems or msd's... But if you had to choose I would take the 8 shooters and be VERY CAREFULL! I'm not kidding here! Last edited by PipeDreams; 04-16-2008 at 05:55 PM. |

| I have both and I would buy more axials before I would get more pro-lines. Yes the screws strip in both wheels, but imo they strip a little easier in the eight shooters. The eight shooters are more narrow as well, I had trouble finding enough room to put as many weights in them as I like because I don't like to triple stack them as the foam my prefer to get stuck on one side or the other. I think they hold a bead about the same, but if you are looking for a sure bet with softer compound tires go with any aluminum wheel except for the rc4wd. |
