What do you mean tby "big sizes"??

and when is the "yet"??

Killeraxle, these are designed and built by an australian company, they are similar to a tireloc, but have some better features about them and are a fair bit cheaper!

I think he was talking about the Tirelock tube its self. The Second Air also has a tube.

Roger Smith has been producing and selling these for a few months now.

$199 is recomended retail everywhere.

Bigballs sells them online as well- http://www.bigballsoffroad.com/prod174.htm

Here is a good write up on them for some more info- http://www.scorpion-racing.co.uk/html/N ... ondair.htm

Yes, i was talking about the Tiretube itself.

The yanks using hummer double beadlock because they are cheap (50$US rim and runflat ass.) and they do their job better than any other system.

i think that these would be a right pain in the arse.
Imagine if you had to change a couple tyres over out bush?

they need to be trail repairable, thats why the tried and true weld/bolt up beadlocks are the best!

tyre removal and installation is pis easy with normal beadlocks, especially if you have onboard air and a rattlegun!

Hey Roly,

The external beadlocks are just as illegal as your lift & tyre size, arn't they ?

Ah, It all become plain as day now.
Beadlockers are only run on the weekend as an "off-road" tyre thing and during the week the legal rims for creaming Barinas are placed back on the environmentaly aware vehicle. Insurance friendly rims are in demand....

I just bought a set of 15x10 second airs from Fourbys in Brisbane for $219 each. Also bought some 38"x12.5"x15"TSLs for $479each also.

Great guys to deal with. Ask for Robbie.

Ruff, why did you choose them over external bead locks, is it for road use as well ?

I will drive them on the road but the main reason is they hold both beads and in competition if i happen to steak a tyre i should be able to continue on the inner beadlock tube to complete a course. Also if i want to change rim styles i can keep the beadlock.

Also they dont stand out as much as a "normal" beadlock does so the chances of getting pulled over running 38" Tyres on road is slightly less.
