Hey guys I'm new to the forum and have a question about aev beadlocks,
Ok this is what i'm going to run 35 goodyear mtr kevlars

They did fine with our Mtr's took about .75 ounce per wheel.

Thanks guys, I wasn't sure if the beadlock would be harder to balance than the regular pintler or not
The guy at discount tire I got my tires from told me they would not mount the tires on beadlock rims but they would ballance them, but I should expect 8 to 10 oz. or more because of the beadlock

I have KM2's on my AEV Beadlocks and they balanced very nicely. Trust me, you don't want "that guy" at the tire store putting together your bead locks anyway. Do it yourself, do it right as per the instructions and you should have nothing but fun from your AEV's

Make sure the screws they send you are grade 8. They had some issues with sending out grade 2 with many sets.
