No pulled beads etc. Quite happy.

That's cool. Could you post a pic of one of the tires...I want those tires and would love to see what it looks like on these wheels. Thanks!

That rim and tire combo looks great under that Chevy truck body.

They look very similar to the GH racing wheels.

I think these wheels with the TSL XL Super Swampers look pretty good on my Comp Spec Honcho.

So will the screw heads be a problem on the lock ring? Most say the screws should be flush with the ring.

You could replace them with button head screws

Could someone be kind enough and measure the inside diameter of the back part of wheel.

I have a set of these. I painted the rings lime green and the rim itself black. The beadlock rings like to bend and mar up under hard use and the screw heads strip. Bought myself some better quality screws. I would still recommend these as you cant go wrong for the price.

How is the weight? Compared to other aluminum beadlocks?

I'm not sure if advertised weights of other beadlock wheels include the rings and screws, or just the wheel itself. I weighed these with the rings and screws.

They look great, could always drill and tap the 6 beadlock screws to 4-40, 2.5mm, or 3mm it looks like there is enough metal there to do the job.

The beadlock ring bolt pattern is prolly same as Axial or VP? You could swap out the rings later if they get too bent up.

The bead lock ring is unfortunately different to my Locked up RC wheels which should match the Axial ones.

I comped my rig last weekend with these wheels and the the TSL XL swampers on them, and despite some rather difficult and tight gates, all the beads held. No issues at all.
