Beedlocks question

They're a good starting point, until you can score a nice set of used alum. bl rims, or a set of steelies from RC4WD. They work fine, but I find the beadlock screws are tiny and easy to strip out.

Any beadlock is better than a glue-rim though.

Thank you for answering my question I mean I just want new rims im tired of these stock glued honchos!! Also another question what is a good beedlock rime with aluminum hex hub?
 
They are great wheels. I have several sets that have been in use for years and still going strong. They look good and hold the beads perfectly.

The beadlock screws might be small but it's NOT easy to strip them out, if you use a proper fitting driver and pay attention and don't try to crank them down once they are snug you will not have issues.

Two things really quick.... Not tryin to be a dick. But.... Beedlocks is BEADLOCKS. And rimes are rims. But rims go on a bike. Wheels go in cars, trucks ect. BEADLOCKS, WHEELS. SORRY FOR BEING AN ASS. just my OCD. Again........ Sorry, nothing personal.

I dunno, I've heard of rims on cars. However the rest I entirely agree with. It's called spell checker. :ror:

I don't know man, I thought that tires went on the RIM and the two combined create the WHEEL as a whole.
 
^^ i'm with you. However...wiki defines the "rim" as the outer part of a wheel to which a tire is mounted.

In regards to the OP. I've had great luck with the axial beadlocks/wheels. You can change up the looks with some different rings too!
