Long Travel BS Thread

Beadlock illegality is a myth, there's nothing that actually says they are illegal, more of a grey area.

 

I see.

 

OMF hooked me up a while back. The rings are black now. Simulated, not true locks. TRD!? That's about as race as it gets baby!

 

Method 101 only thing that pops in my head. Maybe see what wheels the class 2000 guys are running.

 

Yea I was seeing if there was other options besides those.... I don't need beadlocks

 

I think you are doing that sweet suspension you're making a disservice by not getting them.

 

Ok not trying to be a dick but cmon. Obviously I know what street wheels are out there I'm not talking about those, I have street wheels and have fucked two up already....they're not designed for smashing bumps all day long. And if they're not beadlocks why have wheels with folocks on em? (Yea I'm talking shit on myself a lil)

 

Yea if you want to donate the 1800$ for fancy proper beadlocks then go ahead

 

Making headway

 

Do what you gotta do buddayyy
Let see some vids of these smash sessions!

 

Beadlocks are a pain in the ass to install and maintain. I'm with you on this one. I have SCS fo locks and don't like them. Had Robby Gordon's before that, go lock and same drama. The Fo locks stick out past the rubber lip and I scuff up my wheels real easy. I can see them getting cracked too because they hang out there. I'm looking for something similar as well.

 

Sorry I don't own a selfie stick.

 

I took out my fo lock screws and am either going to leave them out or put in some flat head allen screws that sit more flush with the rim. I don't like that they hang out for the reason that they could get stuck on something and make a bigger issue occur when moved against an obstacle. Not the right thread size, but just an example:

Make some friends with one

Kidding. If I lived up there I'd be down to spend a day filming some trucks. I used to film for work and it's pretty fun. Slow motion stuff is fun.

 

I really don't care about scratching up my wheels, just don't like the look if they're not real. And I just want a tough wheel

 

Just throwing this up since it's on topic and I have a fun pic:

 

Not sure what that has to do with an offroad video, but for sure dude!

 

This is kinda like the Method 101 Right? Is this what you're talking about because it's a forged wheel not cast probably alot tougher.
