Default Anyone know these..

Hi, I've just bought these 2nd hand...they are metal and look pretty good, but I've no idea what make they are...anyone know.

They are 2.2s. :-)

SSD 2.2 steel wheels, now discontinued.

I have a set in silver.

I like them, they hold a bead well and have a different look since there are not too many steel wheels in 2.2 size. You got them for a really good price, I think I paid $70 for them new from RPP (not up on my current exchange rates but I think that would be about 50).

Well I finally got round to getting some tyres for these wheels only to finds that they dont hold the bead very well. Im trying Proline Hyrax with the proline dual stage foams. Do I need to get these to make them work or are they for different wheels ?

Those are for SSD aluminum "wide" beadlocks - I checked every one that was listed, none of them are the steel wheels.

Certain Proline tires can be tricky to mount up on some wheels, I'd perhaps rough up the part of the wheel that touches the tire beads... (?)

Most people can eventually get them to work, however.

I mounted the stock bomber tyres to them. I can pull the beads in and out by hand.....not the greatest of wheels it seems.....I think they must need really narrow 2.2s.

..or maybe that's why you get them cheap? I have only very good experiences with SSD wheels.

Well I bought the rings as I thought why not. The stock bombers now hold a bead. Will try the prolines at some stage.
