Thanks for the research… I'm ordering some Method 401s today.

Very nice. Great to be able to see so many different wheels on one page. Thanks for posting this.

 

This is awesome! Especially with various offsets listed. A general price for each wheel would put this list over the top.

 

That's s lot of nice looking wheels. I can't decide between the method 406 or MSA M21.

 

Missed .50 caliber racing

 

Nice to see all the choises out there minius the 50.cal beadlocks.opcorn:

I've added 50 Caliber to the top of the list. Thanks for letting me know 50 Caliber made wheels!

 

Thanks for compiling a list! I just ordered a set of wheels and this would have been very useful while i was researching what to buy.

 

Thanks for the list.
Anyone know which of these are the lightest?

 

Loosescrews - Our 14" HPO wheel is pretty light for a race wheel, 13 lbs each, about the same as the stock XP1K front wheel.

Surely there is a lighter weight wheel out there, but on the flip side of that coin you have to ask if it is going to get the job done. There is all sorts of ways to save weight, but it generally comes at the expense of something else, like durability.

Is there any other (HPO) beadlock wheel more durable and just as (or more) narrow?

 

Thanks for the pics and list of wheels here. I personally have a set of STI HD
Slik-Cote/Machined 14" x 7" coming for my 15 XP1000 Highlifter. In the meantime I have a set of EFX Motoclaw 30"x10" 14R tires residing in my living room while I await the wheels to arrive. I just hope I have no issues mounting these??? They could be a chore and I might have a fight on my hands after it's all said and done...

 

Motorman - show us some pics when you get them mounted. Thx

 

very nice work..:clap::clap:

 

10pointer, I will do. It'll probably be a week or so before I get it all done.

 

1goug76 - Thank you, we really appreciate the support.

Loosescrews - I haven't seen any of the other High Positive Offset (HPO) wheels that are out there, but I'd be a bit surprised if there are any that are a narrower offset. When it comes to strength, we've got that pretty well covered.

The backstory on this beauty can be seen on our Facebook or Instagram accounts. Pricing comes in at $399.95 each, beadlocked and reinforced, with a black powder coated finish on the wheel.

Thanks,
BOnes

 

Vision has a beadlock coming out soon also. Vision 551.

 

Thanks. I added them to the list.

 

Thank you for this list

 

Ok, I finally got my wheels n tires in and all mounted.
STI HD Slik-Cote/Machined 14" x 7"
EFX Motoclaw 30"x10" 14R tire
on my 15 XP1000 Highlifter.

These seem to work well in our area with river sand, dirt, mud, gravel.

How is the quality of the STI beadlocks?

 

They look great motorman! Sounds like you are happy with the performance so far which is good to hear. I'm really leaning towards this setup myself but just not fully convinced on the performance yet.

 

10 Pointer, I've been out twice since I installed these tires. What I really noticed was in the tight twisties of sand trails. The mudder tires made it difficult to switch back and forth in the tight corners. And, maybe that is a given. However the EFX tires made it much more fun. Then, the last outing we hit some smaller mud holes and some hill climbs. It never felt like I needed to be worried at any point. The other reason I selected these tires was the fact that when I go out somewhere that allows riding on the road, these are DOT approved as well. I think a win win for me... One more advantage is that it did not seem like I kicked as much sand up into my vehicle. On the other hand once going through mud, until the treads clear out, there were some large mud clods being kicked up. It seemed like frogs jumping up into the vehicle. I am not a big mudder at heart and don't really care about the mud, but dirt and sand is much more my speed. So that will give you some feedback to think about.

 

Those STI HD Slik-Kote look good Motorman. I can't afford wheels and tires right now, but the STI HD Slik-Kote are one of the options I'm looking at for my 2015 RZR-S 900. But I read someone's post that made their RZR-S 900 go to 66" wide. That's too wide for me. I had Raceline Mamba beadlocks on my 2013 RZR-S 800 (which was stolen) and I liked the looks of the Mamba beadlocks, but the ring has a lip that would hold mud, sand, and dirt behind it to the point it was annoy to wash the wheels. It didn't matter how many times I washed the wheels, I would come back after it drys with a dirty water stain collected at the bottom of the wheel. Other than that annoying OCD problem, the wheels were great and looked good too. Both the Raceline Mamba and STI HD are around the same price range (the lower end). You start looking a Method, HiPer, and Walker Evans they start getting in the $200+ for one wheel... that crazy!

Speaking of $200+ beadlock wheels. Thanks to Instagram, I found another beadlock to add to the list. Robby Gordon has a 12" 4 spoke and 15" 5 spoke beadlock wheels for RZRs. The 12" is around $115 and the 15"...drum roll...$265 from 928 Powersports. The 15" is a great looking beadlock, but I am not spending that much for wheels. If I was a sponsored driver, ok, but I barely make enough for my RZR payment and the rides I go on. I'll stick with the Polaris stock 12" wheels for now, but I really would like some beadlocks and 30" tires.

 

Big3500, I am pretty pleased with the bead locks I have so far. I haven't noticed the residual dirt / mud issue that was mentioned in the previous post. And, the air pressure seems to be holding up well since I've installed them. I got the Orange powder coated bead locks as an option and still have the bare silver ones that the wheels came with....:TX:

 

The wheel company I really want to know why they have not made a beadlock wheel is No Limit... With a name like that, you would think that would have a beadlock wheel. They make great looking wheels, just no beadlocks. OMF makes a universal rings for No Limit wheels, but for just the OMF rings are high dollar.

 

NEW GMZ Casino Beadlocks
Front: 15x8 4+4
Rear: 15x10 5+5

 

Love those wheels! How much wider would my 1000 be? I have a toy hauler camper and can only go an extra inch on each side.

 

Was there a list of the weight of each Beadlock wheel somewhere?

Don't know if I've seen a list of just bead lock wheel weights... On advertised weights, I'm wondering if Mfgr's just Ref the wheel weight, and don't include the ring & hardware (nuts & Bolts)?? IE: Someone at Hiper told me a 14x8 was 12.5ish? Lbs... It appears my 14x8 is a fair bit more...?

Thank you for the width clarification, CentralArk.

 

I'll work on making a list of offset+tire=width, when I get time to.

On the weight list, not every manufacture post the weight of the wheels, so I cannot answer that question.

 

Mounted mine tonight...
