So question, have any of you every thought of running hummer beadlocks? What do you think the ups or downs would be? I keep seeing the guy on pirate that sells them pretty cheap. I don't know what to think. Any thoughts?

Um...what?

Unless you can find someone to chrome them for you, they don't have enough bling for this crew. lol

They run them because they are cheap to buy. If they were the best thing on the market, you would see the comp rigs running them..It all comes down to how much money you have to spend on your rig.

I'm going to be selling my Champion beadlocks here pretty quick. They are 15x9 and 5 on 5.5 bolt pattern.

If you wanna look really cool - buy John's!

My hummer locks from the JK aren't for sale, but I do have some Walker Evans Street locks for sale!

If you wheel hard, you'll love the rock scratches all over them. If you don't wheel hard, at least you'll look like you do mr-green

I'm running a 17" rim and tire combo now. Just thinking about going bigger down the road and thought double beadlocks would be sweet.

Um...what?

If you drill and extra hole and make it work, Alex may want to make a deal!

I'm getting pretty good with power tools...I'm sure I could make the hole fairly straight and I'm almost confident that I can make the hole the correct size. I say we give it a try...
