Guys about to go beadlocks with my 35x10.5 simexes.
The beadlocks are going on a 15x8 rim and since i have heard that by adding the beadlock it adds approx a inch to width wtll the 10.5 still be okay on these?

i run 35x10.5x15 simex's on 15x8 rims with mechanical bedalocks (effectively 9" wide to tyre mounting surface on beadlock side.
No worries whatsoever, even ran 4psi when i had the hilux in comps without drama.
Fitting the same tyre on a 15x10 rim however was another matter... the tyre place had dramas trying to seat the bead. i use it for a spare only at about 30psi (never actually used it) it looks like the wierdest simex you ever saw due to its wideness!!!
