| Race line Monster Wheels or SSD-RC Assassin wheels
RC4WD Raceline Monster 1.9 or SSD-RC Assassin Beadlocks? I really like the Raceline wheels but not really a fan of RC4WD. The SSD-RC guys are simply killing it with all their products. I like the fact that they bolt together with 6 bolts instead using the ring bolts. I know the SSD-RC wheels use SLW hubs bolt pattern which is a nice plus. Anyone know what hubs RC4WD uses? Also what is the bead retaining method the Racelines use? |

I dunno the hub that the Monsters use, but there's only 6 bolts on the back to hold the tire, the front ring goes over the bead and clamps it to the inner ring (just like their steel wheels).

Im trying to make the same decision! I honestly like the looks of the raceline better, but have read complaints about the beadlocks not working very well with proline swampers.

RC4WD in my opinion makes great looking stuff. It rarely goes past that. Think I'm leaning toward the Assassins.

I can't speak to the Assassins or compare them to the RC4WD wheels, but I have the SSD D-Holes in black & absolutely love them. Super easy to mount, look great and have a great feel & weight to them in the hand. If the Assassins are anything like the D-Holes, you won't be disappointed. |

The RC4WD Raceline Monster appear to be using a ring with six screws on the back of the wheel for assembly and a lock ring similar to the SSD for locking the bead. | |

I have the steel SSD wheels and like them a lot. Anyone have a picture of the Racelines in pieces?

I sold the Racelines after not being able to return them and went with another set of SSD wheels. | ||

I have owned a couple sets of RC4WD wheels and a couple sets of SSD wheels. I think the SSD wheels are better quality and I found it easier to get tires mounted on them.
