I read the sticky, some cool ones, but nothing in stock. I cant even find the stock wheels. Was hoping to mount a second set of tires, preferably beadlocks.

Here is a link to mine that I sell. They are just the rims and weights...no hardware or bead rings. They are true bead locks and give you a nice offset like having wheel spacers. I can also make them with less of an offset if wanted. PM me if you need any more info.

It's wither stock rims, my rims, or the super expensive aluminum ones on rc4wd.
That's pretty much all the options until Fungi is ready to sell his "thumbsup"
 
The DDT beadlocks are very good wheels. They work well with the 4 types of tires (factory, RC4wd MT Baja Claws, Super Swamper/TSL Boggers and Miclaws) I have tried. I use the factory Losi b/l rings on them. You can get any color you want...as long as it is black. ;-)
 
I use that spray paint for plastic from home depot and it coats and sticks on the bead rings really nice. To make the color pop I use white primer first and bake it all on with a cheap toaster oven set at about 110 degree's
 
The stock wheels and tires are glued on, right? So I could pull the rings and still use the tires on the rims I guess? Not that I want to.
 
I will add that his made rims are worth the investment. They actually make my tires work harder. I honestly thing it was one of my top upgrades that has been done.
 
I just ordered some beadlocks and a motor from Dannaly. I hope to get them in the mail soon. He was good to comunicate with and was quick to send them out. I should be able to give you an opinion of them soon
 
Well there you go I got my wheels and motor in the mail today. The wheels look nice. They are well made. The bigblock motor is complete and has included instructions.
