Default 2.2 Aluminum bead locks + Losi RZR Rey = bad idea?

Greetings everyone,

I'm considering getting some 2.2 aluminum bead locks for my Losi RZR Rey. The problem is I'm not sure if the drivetrain can take the stress from the added weight or if the tires will even stay on the rims due to the centrifugal force. What are your thoughts?

I don't think weight would be an issue, and the tires staying on would vary depending on the wheels/tires used, but most of all be mindful of the inner wheel diameter. The RZR Rey looks to have wheels with staggered diameters (with a larger inner diameter like short course wheels have) so standard 2.2" beadlocks might not clear the suspension components depending on the offset.
