I thought they would be a great way to try tires without committing to wheels, but after getting a set i couldn't believe how much those puppies weigh. Long story short, I've got an almost brand new set I'd let go cheap if anyone wanted them.

which beadlocks do you have? these rims with dirt bonz seemed like they weighed just as much as my Q6's on mashers. i was looking at the x-75's and those things are heavy[:@].

yeah... they're real beadlocks. there's not as many lugs as compared to a real offroad beadlock but during my 1st attempt at mounting them i noticed a little pinch in the sidewall so i took the screws off and the face plate was a b*tch to take off. once you tighten the screws, it seals the bead very nicely. as for weight wise... these rims w/ dirt bonz seem like they weight the same as my previous Q6's w/ mashers. if there's a difference it's just slight.
