beadlock/bead issue?

[fred0000]

not major, but has anyone dealt with this? and found a decent non-permanent solution? it looks as though the wheel has spun inside the tire, its nothing to major as this is the first time i've even seen it happen.



I was almost afraid to keep crawlin, as the sidewall was bound up tight on the rim, I was feelin for those poor soft sidewalls

looks like you were drag racing i've never seen that before though.

i've seen the sidewalls ripple before, but never the wheel turn inside the tire

I've seen some tires do that if the bead lock bolts aren't tight enough on one side. They will spin on one side, not the other. It's hard with the small hardware and plastic on the stock wheels but you might try to snug them down a bit more, may help.

WOW! impressive, seeing in your thread people are mentioning soft foam, i've been complaining about my foams in my panthers. they are the only foams I have though stock axial mem. foams...

maybe I should look into foams for this thing.

In Panthers, I've found 2 stock Axial non memory foams in each tire works rather well. If you like memory foams, hit up Nova's Ark. I've not run any of his foam personally, but have seen them work. They are the cats pajamas.

thanks for the tip, i've been on the hunt for a few non-memory foams for these tires, good to know i've been on the right track, i've looked into nova's ark, but i'm the type to try to find someting localy before I have to order, his foams defenatly seem to be worth the wait though.
