    Yup, I figured there was no need to run beadlocks on the two spares, so they got pro comp steelies. I used 2500 airsoft BB's per tire to balance them so below 40 mph it drives like shit, (exactly like the 50 or so other hummers I've rode in and drove) but at speed it drives really nice. The tires are surprisingly quiet without the weight of an uparmor M114 on them. The traction on them sucks in the rocks, but for the open desert at speed they are just like projects, and just as heavy. I put in 4.88 gears yesterday and ARP wheel studs, just need to finish up the brakes and I'll know how much of a turd it is.

    Im sure it will be a little slower to get to speed and like said not as good overall in slower conditions. But once your up to speed its gonna be hard to find something that turd wont take :cool:
