I ilke beadlocks for 2 reasons. They keep the tire on the wheel, AND they protect the wheel from bending. you loose that with an internal beadlock... and chicks dont see internal beadlocks |

Tires are more expensive for a 16.5 wheel and they will be heavier due to being a 3/4 to 1 ton application |

they are two piece internal beadlocks.... the ones on that page are the originals... now they make 15 inch any bolt pattern(including vw) with a lighter internal piece...locking both the inner and outer bead by pinching them against the internalpiece as the two halves are tightened together.... http://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh28 ... adlock.jpg kernal1984 wrote: Tires are more expensive for a 16.5 wheel and they will be heavier due to being a 3/4 to 1 ton application this version is made any size or lug pattern not just the military rim remanufactured. and weight of vehicle will not change weight of rim unless its a semi... same rims unless they are dually rims on all 1/4, 1/2,3/4,and 1 ton trucks... only diff between them is lug pattern and sometimes not even that http://www.pirate4x4.com/forum/showthread.php?t=979610 here is the new version which is not just reusing military hummer wheels http://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh28 ... dlock2.png maybe someone on here could cut an aluminum rim in half and add centers like they have done in the new version to save weight |

I'm bidding on a set of 15" combat rims at the moment which are constructed in exactly the same way.. except they're from 1957! |
