    Good & Cheap Beadlocks for Mudslingers

    I am looking to order beadlocks for Mudslingers but I need some help picking out the right parts.

    I want wider rims with an offset. I saw somewhere the mudslingers should be on narrow wheels but that's not gonna fly because I dont want much side-to-side tire play. Stock wheels have too much play side to side

    What are some good, wide beadlocks with an offset that will mount up easily and wont break the bank?

    Cheyennes are cheap but don't have an offset.

    I would love some Axial 8 spoke Chrome beadlocks but i can't find them cheaper than $35 after 11 day shipping. They are 17mm hex.

    Narrow rims are 1/2 the width of regular 40 series. They will fit standard but look a little distorded. Are you worried about the tire rolling over on itself? Slingers on narrow rims will roll less than the stockers but still arnt suitable for high speed cornering, even with wide rims.
    Proline makes some non-beadlock narrow rims for cheap. I use the rocketser narrows for my rok lox and they have held up wonderful. Even though the tire is over 8" tall amd on narrow rims, they roll over on itself far less than stock. Not sure of their offset though.
