Some wheel/tire questions.

[aaron4873]

I am going to be getting the Proline Dirt hawg tires mounted on Titus beadlock wheels.

1) what does it mean to be beadlock?
2) do theese tires need to be glued?
A) What is a good cheap glue to use?
3) Do theese tires come with tire inserts?
A) What are some good inserts to get (if not)
4) should i change the gearing on my stock summit when adding theese tires?


Thank you for answering my extended list!

a beadlock is tires that are held on be a ring with screws instead of glue.
I don't think they need to be glued.
inserts included.
These tires are,smaller than stock summi ones. But they may weigh more.

1) Bead lock rims clamp the tire to the rim instead of using glue.

2) No.
A- Superglue works fine... thin CA is about the same chemically

3) I think they do.
A- I have heard great things about closed cell inserts.

4) Yes. Expect performance to go down as this rim is very heavy.
Speed will decrease, acceleration will decrease, heat will increase, and batteries will die quicker.

Yes the beadlock rings will make the tires heavier.
