Beadlocks

I have a 2019 Toyota Tacoma offroad. I've ran the beadlocks on the truck and they were starting to shred the threads off of it. Does anyone have any suggestions to help out. Anything would help. Thanks

 

Beadlocks are not for highway. Low speed off road low pressures. Only.

 

No idea what he’s talking about, but he appears to be running TRD fake beadlocks, based on his reply in this thread:

Yeah I'm not sure what hes talking about either huh

 

He might be talking about the bolts holding the fake bead lock rings on the rims.

 

Tread or Thread. Big difference.

Pictures of the problem would help.

Fake bead locks should have no issues unless they are abused.

 

I know what @hiPSI is talking about.
No idea what you mean by “starting to shred the threads off of it.”

 

hiPSI is talking about that most real beadlock wheels are not DOT approved. He probably did not know you were talking about the TRD fake beadlock wheels.

 

Have you ever had an alignment?

 

So to summarize, "My wheels that have a faux retaining ring commonly known as a bead lock, is damaging my tire at the sidewall that contacts the faux ring."

Lol

 

You mentioned beadlocks. I responded properly for real beadlocks. Apparently you are running fake beadlocks. Big difference.

Real beadlocks can shred tires at high speed with normal pressure.
Fake beadlocks? The bolts don't even go through the rim and I have no idea what you are talking about.
I have ran both.

 

I ran the TRD beadlock style wheels and REAl beadlocks and have no idea what he’s talking about

 

We want to help.

Please, please post pictures of the situation. Speaking for all of us, we cannot fathom the situation you are having. Please list the brands of the wheel and tire, what specs, and what pressures.


I run the TRD Rock Ring Alloys (that's what I am calling them) with 265-75-16 Toyo Open Country ATII tires @ 28psi with no problems on the rims, rock rings , or tires.

 

I may have figured out the problem. Thanks

It’s pulling the threads out of the mounts for the rings?
