Default VP Method 2.2?

What tires fit the VP method wheels 2.2? I have rockbeasts and I can't get them to work without bead slipping off. Do baja claws fit?

I have them on bfg's and they were a bitch to mount. And I even narrowed the inner foams!

The trick I found was to go slow. Put the two halves on and use two long 4/40 screws to where it just barely starts to clamp. Work the bead into the outter ring. Then get two 4-40 screws an 1/8" shorter than the previous. Put them in and work the bead. Remove the longer of the screws and put in screws that are an 1/8" shorter than the second pair.. Then adjust the bead. Keep doing that till you get down to the included screws for the wheel. It takes time, and patience, but you will get a solid bead set. My first one took me and hour and half or so.. After that I was averaging 35-45 minutes a tire.

Hope this helps

I just put rock beast 2's on method 2.2's,so it can be done. I agree with hittman,go slow and get longer hardware to get you started. It was a bitch. Clean the tires with simple green seemed to help.Good luck.
