huh, so it's essentially a 3-piece wheel, vs a once piece with two rings? i've seen pictures of his, but never really looked into them.

 

RockMonster 2-Piece Aluminum Rims With Dual Internal Beadlock Protection by Hutchinson Industries

 

^that's from the website

Nice looking wheels, is it offered in 6 lug?

 

i need to look into these more to figure out how they really work. if that's the same hutchinson that makes bike tires.

indeed, see link above

 

Yea Mr Grimm is running them

 

Ehh they cost just as much as walker evans'

 

indeed... almost as much as the Demello ones ($425)

 

soooooo, did they just drill and tap a factory wheel, or did they do something else to make it worth the $425?

 

I think just drill and tap.... not sure what the elevated price is about however

they also make a "simulated beadlock" version that's the same price

 

looks like an OMF conversion

 

i would assume the turn the wheel on a lathe to properly contour the outter edge of the rum lip to seat the inside edge of the tire bead. at least i hope they do that...

 

Since this thread is already off topic.

 

Thanks to tayzorz, I may be coming

 

Oh sweet baby jesus!

 

when would you make it over? i'm really hoping to camp friday or saturday. i have a feeling you don't want to make that drive twice in one day.
