Default Allied Rockathon Beadlocks

As a cheaper alternative to higher priced beadlock JK wheels, I found a source for Allied Rockathon beadlocks for the JK. These are functional, 32 bolt Allied beadlocks for under $200! Available in Daytona o Rock 8 style.

w ww.high-impact.net

Daytona:


Rock 8


They´re available in 5 on 5" bolt battern for the JK in 15, 16 and 17 inch wide. The price for 16x10 is $194 each plus shipping. Thought it was a pretty good deal. The 5x5" is not on their website, you need to order by phone or e-mail. Good luck.

sorry for the hijack
Bead lock wheels lock the bead of the tire to the wheel so you can air down more without loosing the bead on the tire and having to reseat it.

A bead lock rim would have prevented this from happening.

I just love it when I am made to be an example.

Ironically, just the other day I was contemplating tires and wheels and decided that for my style of wheeling I didn't need to worry about bead locks. Two days later...
