A beadlock or bead lock is a mechanical device that secures the bead of a tire to the wheel of a vehicle. Tires and wheels are designed so that, when the tire is inflated, the tire pressure pushes the bead of the tire against the inside of the wheel rim so that the tire stays on the wheel and the two rotate together. In situations where tire pressure is insufficient to hold the bead of the tire in place, a beadlock is needed.

GOOD POST <img src='http://www.canadianhummerclub.com/forum ... ght_on.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':right_on:' />

I much prefer these beadlocks... http://www.staunproducts.com/beadlock.php



They can be mounted on any rim and actually lock both inner and outer beads in place. Also they double as a runflat! And they have no weight penalty like most 2 piece rims and beadlocks have and no balancing issues either!



TC, did you order my set of 17x9???
