Looking for bead lock pics.

[Corey 78K5]

Anyone got any pic's of bead lock rings on stock 16" steelies? Been checking out the rings on the DIY site and I got some 16" rims and my brain is churning.

I wouldn't do 16s. Seems like it is a size that gets brushed over alot by alot. Of tire manufactures. I had a set of 16in beadlocks and sold em because of that. 16s seem to be overrun by metric tires and I wasn't a fan. I would do 17in beadlocks or even 15s before 16s.

I'm sure others will chime in

Also don't forget to factor in at least a hundred for all those bolts nuts and washers

Do 17"s Even 15"s are becoming the odd one out.

I've heard those DIY beadlocks will leak also.

17's have problems losing inner beads and burping.

15's are totally out of the question. When I went 3/4 ton I had to grind the piss out of my calipers to clear and I am not about to do that on my 60.

Fock 16's do suck!

Don't waste your time with the DIYbeadlocks there 1/2 as thick as everyone elses beadlocks


Go DIY4X best deal around IMHO

On 15's, but still. Never leaked and balanced... okay.

get new rims from summit with 2.5" b/s and NO grinding to fit dana 60. http://www.summitracing.com/parts/USW-78-5080R/

Fock it, I think I'll just go with some 17" black spokers from US Wheel.

well again 17" is probably the way to go just for ease of materials available
