Outer Limits 4x4 Board

Hey folks, it's been a while.

I'm after peoples opinions on alloy beadlock wheels.

I'm strongly considering getting some Rock Monster double beadlocks but they're very pricey and back spacing isn't ideal.

Obviously the Walker Evans are a good option and i've also been looking at these new Allied Savvana beadlocks, but they're new on the scene and i can't find any 1st hand feedback.

What other options are available for Patrols?

Any feedback is welcome.

cheers Jason

Yeah i researched them a bit.

Is someone selling them in Aus yet or did you bring em in?

Are they very heavy?

What did you put them on, a Patrol?

Can you get em with a low profile lock ring?

What's their load rating?

na mate got them im pretty sure all the info is on the website.

Is anyone using the Rock Monster beadlocks?

Procomp also do an alloy beadlock to suit Patrol, i believe they are strong

I've had a good look but can't find anything.

All of Pro Comps wheels seem to have "simulated beadlocks" or "beadlock styling"

Why not just weld a set of alloy beadlocks onto a set of Alloy rims? That way you can get and make whatever style you want.

Trail Ready is another option

Or get some good quality rims converted, below are Mickey Thompsons that have been converted.

def90 (Sam) runs the Rock Racing Monster rims & loves 'em.

I'm not sure if thats a very economical option (unless you already have the wheels , and are set up to TIG)?

Those Allied wheels can be had for $390 each

Are they made by Raceline wheels?

Hey try wheelboyz.com.au they are in brisbane sell kmc and other brands fairly cheap. Got 5 kmc enduro rims alloy beadlock good to deal with

Yeah i've seen the KMC Enduros, i can get them over here through RaceGear WA.

Did you put em on a Patrol?
The back spacing was no good for me though, 4.75" on a 8.5" rim.

what about the Trail Gear Creeperlocks, that would be my choice for alloys

Agree. I gave mine a hard time, and never had an issue . Should be able to get them pretty cheap atm too

Yeah they're the wheels that i've been asking if anyone has used them in Australia yet.

I run the new Allied locks Can't seem to fault them for the price. I have only driven on them for 6 days of wheeling thoe. They arn't super light caus they are fairly thick

I got them only a few days after they landed in Aus, I don't know how many they brought in.

They look a lot better fitted.

I agree, they look crap in the advertisement. Like there other wheels but on Rhetts they aren't too bad. Think they are rated at 2700lbs. Don't do a 8 bolt so no good to me.

Very nice Who sells them over here? Do you know what rim diameters are available?

only 3 sets made it here apparantly , me and a mate got a set each and the 3rd set is on the pro comp jeep .
pro comp aust brought them in and they are 17x9 .

im expecting a set of the Spiderlock wheels, i found they had the better offset compared to the walker evans, allied and the trail gear ones. will wait and see!!

once i get them ill fit them to the shoes that are in the lounge room and post a pic

EVan

what size and offset did you get ?

i am thinking about getting some hutchinsons and moving my current beadlocks on too a new home .

For the Hutchinson wheels have a talk to Proformance over here in WA.

I'm going for the Allied.

Thanks for your input fellas

looked into the hutchinsons a little more and it seems they are made for toyotas specifically and the centre bore is too small for gq diffs .
cant cbf getting them machined out .
