With brushless the tires will just rip out of them, i was thinking about getting some. Plus they are heavy.

I just would love to see a pic of a set mounted on a truck. These are not the Axial brand but the same size.

Thanks guy's but this is not mine. It's a buddies over on Rccrawler.com Just figured the picture with the wheels needed to be here. This is a thread he started that has some different rims on it other then the stock. www.rccrawler.com/forum/showthread.php?t=125660And yeah these beadlocks are RPP with narrowed prolines.

Hey Steve Dirtfreak15 was talking about putting axial beadlocks on his E-CRT .5 with gladiators on them??? Well either way I wouldn't have brushless in mine, just like a good mod motor or something like that!!!!

Hey guys. That's my truck that rubbaneck posted.
Just wanted to let you know that we had our first Slash Bash race last night and the RPP beadlock wheels held the tires on just great. The Proline Dirt Works tires have great traction, but not so good with the narrowed Dirt Hawg II tires. I'm working on a narrowed set of Dirt Works for the rear for the next race.
Surprisingly the glue has held up on the tires, not a single split anywhere. I ran a couple 6 cell packs on the street to test them and they held up to 2 heat races and an A main race last night. For the race I was running an 8 cell pack and the stock motor.
And thanks for the compliments. I'm not too serious about the racing so I just wanted to make it look good and I think the RPP wheels are cool.

The Axial beadlocks work pretty good on the slash, I have them on mine. Little tricky to tighten down strait only because the axial hexes have the spacer built in to center them. They work good enough for me, and the look pretty cool I think! Ill go see if I can get a pic uploaded...
