Jy praat seker van a Bead Locks. Dis 'n ding wat jy fit wat keer dat you tyre de-bead as jy met jou tyres baie afgeblaas ry soos op sand.

Beadlock
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A beadlock is a mechanical device that secures the bead of a tire to the wheel.--- First manufactured by Marsh Racing Wheels at Siloam Springs, Arkansas in 1980 but conceived designed and tested by Marsh Racing Wheels years earlier.

Purpose
Air pressure within a tire forces its bead against the wheel rim and ensures that they rotate as a single unit. More traction is needed for tires on a dirt track racing or off-road vehicle. Drivers will often lower the air pressure to cause the tread to spread out and create a larger contact patch. This practice can create a safety hazard as there may not be enough pressure to secure the tire to the wheel. There are situations where there is a lot of pressure pushes the tire to one side or the other, especially on the outside rear tire of a dirt track racing vehicle when it is turning in a corner of an oval. This causes the bead of the tire to come off the wheel. It is also possible for the tire to have more traction on the ground than there is friction between the tire and wheel. In this case the wheel would spin within the tire without being able to turn the tire. Beadlocks are therefore designed to "lock" the bead of the tire onto the wheel.

Standard beadlocks

A standard beadlock is designed to clamp the tire bead between an outer and an inner ring. The inner ring may be welded onto a standard wheel increasing wheel width by anywhere from 1 1/2 to 2 inches or may be formed as part of the wheel when the wheel is made in the factory. The outer ring is then bolted onto the inner ring with the bead clamped between them. Anywhere between 16 and 32 bolts at around 10 ft·lbf are used around the circumference of the wheel to keep the clamp tight. The rings and bolts can cause problems with balancing the wheel and tire because all the added weight is on one side. This style is used exclusively for offroad use.

It is important to note that most standard beadlocks clamp only the outside bead. This is fine in most cases because the outside bead is the side that comes unseated most often while off-roading.

Nee, dis spesiale rims daai, en baie duur.....praat met Riceburner, hy sal vir jou pryse kan kry op sulke rims. Daar is egter 'n ou in die Kaap wat dit kan doen vir R1000 per rim, en jy moet die rims voorsien en hy verander dit tot 'n beadlock rim.
Jy kan ook 'n Staun beadlock insit, wat 'n 2de tube tipe effek is wat die bead uitdruk en teen die rim hou, hulle kos so R1700 elk vir die beadlock, en dan moet jy net 'n gat in die rim boor vir die valve.

Jy kan sulke goed kry wat net vir die look gemaak is, dis nou as "bling-bling" jou ding is, maar die nagemaakte goed sal heel moontlik seer kry as jy jou voertuig offroad gebruik....koop eerder 'n blink stel "spinner mags" dit sal meer aandag trek :mrgreen:
Die goed is so gespesialiseerd dat dit onwettig is om op publieke paaie te grebruik in meeste Amerikaanse state. Dis eintlik ook onwettig om die tuisgemaaktes op SA paaie te gebruik(of selfs enige rim waarop daar gesweis is om dit wyer te maak of so iets), maar 99.9% van ons verkeers beamptes het nog nooit eers daardie deel die "SABS code" gesien nie.
