Beadlocks
 
Does anyone use them - I was thinking of a set of 17mm .5" offset maximizers for my truggy...

Save having to glue tires and boil rims etc.

Thanks

they are very heavy. i hear the rings pop out and break alot, i would not suggest maximizer wheels. heavy, pricy, low quality.

I ran these Maximizer beadlocks on my Revo when I had it with some Badlands, and never had a problem with them. One time about half an inch of one of the tire beads pulled out, but what do you expect from brushless :angel:.

I use the same wheels on my rustler with panther slicks, Ive had no problems at all.

I use the same wheels, their newer versions are dialed. They are heavier but I hate to glue, proline premounts are a good alternative for lighter weight

I use same maximizer wheels as the previous guys on my savage. No problems at all, they hold up very well to BL power.

I used to have issues with the hpi dirt bonz pulling out of the maximizers but I haven't had any issues with the badlands. The maximizers are not bad quality. I have run my maximizers for a long time now. The biggest problem with the rims I used to run was that I would break off large chunks of the side of the rim. The plastic of the maximizers won't do this. Mine have many scrapes but they haven't broken.
