Military Beadlock rims

[86chev]

I was just wondering if the 16.5 military beadlock rims fit on regular 3/4 ton axles. the offset looks very different from stock wheels. im looking into a set with the magnesium runflats for mt offroad wheels but dont really want to have to run spacers. I currently have a d44 front and ff 14b rear. thanks

I've seen em on our trucks before so I know they'll fit, standard 8x6.5 bolt pattern. I would like to get a set myself with 35s or 36s for racing.

I know the H1 wheels will run fine on a DRWfront axle because of the offset front hub but on a SRW front axle i have been told they interfear bad with the turning radus because of the offset in the wheel. Thats why most everybody recenters the wheel with a new center to correct the offset problem. But other then that runem.

I was told they wouldnt work on a SRW unless you buy 2in spacers or have them recentered.

Well damn, good to know because I sure wanted some of my own.

on the rear they work fine on SRW but they have to be either recentered on the front or run spacers to clear

I tried running them on mine but it wouldnt fit completely because of the brake calipers. I just reveresed them and ran 'em for a week till my new rirms came in.

I think you were told correctly.

They may fit on the rear of a SRW, but it sure would look silly.

Kert at www.diy4x.com recenters for $75 each. Can't beat that. I've got $127.50 each in a set of double beadlocks. Welded the rock rings in & they ran me $40 each. So $167.50 in each wheel WITH the rock rings. How you gonna beat that for a DOUBLE beadlock?
