I'm pumped, thank youHell yeah, that's a good price!
I'm eager to see these when you get them.

Yes the comps. Got some white 15x8s too as everything I am able to choose is red white and blue
I really was tempted to push to 35s but yotas comments made sense and a lot say they sit higher than equivalent mts
i am interested in the sxs tire option as well. debating the 33-35 tire selection. some of the cheapest i have seen are
arisun aftershock XD. they arent DOT tires ....but you can buy a 35-10-15 are 190 per tire
I'd be a little weary running non bead lock 10" wide on an 8" wheel. I lost beads somewhat easily on my talon with the 8" rears at low pressure.
Did you check out the speedway link? ~$160 ea for beadlocks with lots of back spacing options seems like a no brainer over the current ~$100 ea standard steelies.
My 3 year old, beat up 40% tread carnivores are a hair over 31" off the truck at ~5psi.Yeah, tire sizes are goofy in automotive MTs and many run a bit small, some very small (cough BFG cough). But I've read that SxS tires are mostly true to size or even a hair taller. So a new "33x10.50r15" BFG measures more like 32" tall at street pressure and not under a truck's weight, where a 32" SxS tire would be 32-32.5" tall.
Well I guess I missed that, everything is shipping but I'm sure I can return easily. The speedway link brought me to tires I think but will check now.I'd be a little weary running non bead lock 10" wide on an 8" wheel. I lost beads somewhat easily on my talon with the 8" rears at low pressure.

Please keep advice coming, I tend to research/buy and use/repeat lol. If I can dodge a bullet and more importantly down time, don't be shy
Just saw the beadlocks are due April 27, gonna look for more 15x7. Is a non beadlock a real deal breaker?
That would be awesome, thank youI think 7" is perfect. I have 35x10.50s on my 4runner on 7" wheels and it's perfect, I wouldn't want 8s. Samurai weld ons are like 6.5"? If they're bead locks it will be OK, but I'd rather have 7" and I'd be worried about the bead blowing easy with 8s. Theyll be effectively the same as 12. 50s on 10" wheels, which I'm not a fan of either.
Go to speed way
Wheels > 15" Dia > 5x5.5 > beadlocks > sort by cheapest first they have 7s and 8s with lots of back spacing options. I'd think you'll want low bs. I have to run 1.5" spacers on my samurai and I still rub the leafs with ~3.5" bs. I'd probably just go 2" bs
Edit: I can actually get some more accurate with and backspacing measurements since my tires and wheels are off the rig if you want
They are 15x8 with 1" spacers in front currently.That will be almost centered in the wheel shell.
I feel like you might want a little less to keep them off the leafs.
What tire width and wheel specs are you running now?
They are 15x8 with 1" spacers in front currently.
I agree those are out of the picture, just saying that's all I found in 15x7 beadlocks. Never ran beadlocks before either...
Just measured 2.5 backspacing
I don't mind going 7 if it is smarter, will dig into it
If you had the pick of 8" beadlocks or regular 10x7 what would you pick?Just measured my wheels, stock Sami wheels with speed way weld on beadlocks. 6" wide 3.5" bs. With 1.5" spacers. 32x10s didn't rub the leafs until I replaced the stock felt bolts with flat heads. (do that btw)
2" bs 7" wide would probably fit perfectly. But I think they only make the 2" bs with the 8" wide. You're call. You could always throw them on your current wheels to check fitment. Might be fine with duct tape wraps. I honestly run beadlocks because I hate mud, wood, snow, ice ger9in the bead and causing leaks. I run 2-3lbs on my heavy 4runner with stock wheels and no issues in the snow.
Surprised by the amount of fake beadlocks out there. Can't seem to find 5x5.5 for sub 400 a piece, is that normal? May go 15x7 instead. Gonna order something today so I can erase the daydreaming lol
I always do - starter fluid is my duct tape. Shit is magicOr just carry a can or two of starter fluid and an air compressor with you.
