    In my search to find wheels with less backspacing, I came across these:

    - Raceline 887 Rockcrusher 16x8 with 3.625" backspacing

    [​IMG]

    - Eagle Alloy 100 16x8 with 3.625" backspacing

    [​IMG]

    - Raceline RT81 17x9.5 with 3.5" backspacing - but these steel wheels are about 50 lbs and the beadlocks only recommend up to 25 psi - otherwise I would have bought these.

    [​IMG]

    I still haven't found a set of wheels to buy so does anyone know about the Raceline 887s or Eagle Alloy 100s?

    25 psi is the max according to the manufacturer. Any lower (10-12) is probably even better. Why does the wheel manufacturer have a max psi anyway? - i'd only think they would have a minimum.

    what would happen if I ran >35 psi on a beadlock wheel that only recommends up to 25 psi?

    Yes, they are safe to run down to 10-12 psi anywhere. But the RT81's arent supposed to go ABOVE 25 psi because of the beadlock. I still dont know why.

    would driving with 25 psi with the Raceline RT81s kill my mpg? I'd think that lower psi = bad gas mileage.

    I would call poly performance and ask them if the 25 psi thing is necisary, because those wheels are super sweet looking
