|  2.2 beadlocks w/ all-t's?
ok, I got a set of jps products 2.2 aluminum beadlocks the other day and I mounted up a set of imex 2.2 all-t's w/o foams. my problem is that the tires hold to much air in them making them very bouncy, I've tried loosening the bead and squeezing some air out but that didn't help. anyone have any ideas? sods |

Probably need to drill holes in your pretty rims. Probably not what you wanted to hear... |

I'll measure them up for you when I get home. I can tell you there is just enough room to put a 1/2 oz wheel weight in between the beads. sods |

or drill a small hole in the tire, saving your rims. say in a tread block or even on the inner sidewall
