Help me pick my new wheels

[Bob Barker]

Does it take a special shop to mount or know how to mount bead lock tires?

[etlsport]

No special machinery required. A lot of times the rims have a bulge near the bead to keep the tire from coming off the other direction. This requires a fair amount of skill to mount so an offroad shop would probably have an easier time with it but I've done a set before at a regular old shop

[nfpgasmask]

Is that a faux beadlock on the Chamber Pros or the real deal?

Aren't beadlocks illegal for street vehicles in some places?

There are several beadlock wheels that are DOT approved and street legal. All others are for "race or offroad use only". However, I have never seen anyone get stopped and wheels checked for DOT approval. Most (99.9%) officers would not know the differance.

Not sure if those are real 'locks or not...would have to check their site.
***Just checked the site...looks like they are fake-locks.
