These are cheaper than stauns.

[QUOTE=Bigrockbronc;8642945]I just talked to Shawn yesterday about getting some inner air locks on my racer before the Xrra nationals in TN. He was a really friendly guy to talk to and seems pretty stoked to get his product out there. He has only been in business about 6 months, and from the sounds of it, he is a one man show. I think his product has a big advantage being able to use off the shelf motorcycle tubes instead of hard to find replacements. I look forward to using his product and if anyone sees us out, stop by and ask about them. We'd be more than happy to discuss them with anyone. We hope to be getting our set in the next couple of weeks. I will post up on my impressions of them when they arrive.[/QUOTE]

15" Stauns use 14" 155mm tubes, not rocket science, and I would say easier to find out in the bush than motorcycle tubes.

So these (and stauns) are basically motorcycle/car tubes fitted inside a tough outer 'bag'?

Sounds almost simple enough to make at home, rather than fork out the rediculous price. Maybe out of leather or kevlar?

What pressure do you run these at?

I can recall someone running 235/45/17 tyres inside their 44s as cheap inner beadlocks.

Now that would be a heavy wheel setup.
