NEW STI HD5 Beadlocks in now 14x9 and 15x7. (Added to first post list.)

HD5 15x7

HD 14x9

List of sizes and finishes. NOTE STI listed 5+2 on the 14x9 sand wheels, which is incorrect. STI responded with HD5 beadlocks are 14x9 5+4, that they had a typo.

I was scrolling through the "random" section of Instagram and ran across a picture that caught my eye. There is a new UTV beadlock on the market. The truck beadlock wheel company that goes by Fuel Off Road Wheels is making their ANZA beadlock into a 4 lug UTV beadlock. Bruce Cook (Nitro Circus & first FMX rider to back flip a dirt bike being paralyzed) just unveiled this week the new beadlocks on his RZR. These looks really good IMO. They remind me of Walk Evans but maybe better looking. Fuel Off Road Wheels have not post any official sizes yet, but the ones in this picture are 15" beadlocks.

sorry for this question... but, why beadlocks are only on the outside of the wheel and not on the inside? there is no chance of the tire to "unmount" from the inside?

thanks!

U can get double beadlocks. Outer edge is most common, willing to bet it is because of it being the leading edge in a turn/slide.

They do make inner and outer beadlocks but usually the outer beadlock is all that is needed to keep the tire on the wheel if you have a flat or something
..
.the inside wheel is much weaker without a beadlock than with a beadlock. Reinforcement rings are really the only thing needed on the inner bead to keep from splitting or bending in the inner bead on a rock-- been there done that

The guys above are correct. Double beadlock I would see come in handy if someone was rock crawling and sky wheelied, and landed on a boulder that hit the inside bead of the tire. ITP SD Series are the only UTV wheel that offers a double beadlock that I know of. Not sure if any of the more "custom" beadlock brands like OMF make doubles.

Ran across a new beadlock wheel, but not sure this will go into production or be just a one off. But [HOONIGAN] Ken Block is getting a set of beadlocks made for his *cough* Can Am Maverick. They are being built by fifteen52, the same company that makes his Gymkhama and Rally wheels for his race cars. Could fifteen52 soon be making UTV beadlocks or is Ken Block paying for a set of one offs? Don't know, but thought y'all would like to see this raw beadlock before it is painted some crazy color.

UPDATE: OMF Performance posted on their Instagram page this same beadlock wheel for Ken Block, from fifteen52. OMF will be fitting the ring for this beadlock. I know it's a Maverick, but I can't wait to see this build complete.

$299 is not bad compared to others that can be upwards in the amount of $600 per beadlock wheel. Hiper are minimally $300+/- corner. Nice wheels tho

If STI, GMZ, Raceline, Sedona, some of MSA & Method wheels are under $170, and some beadlocks are under $150. These wheels from SuperATV could be closer to the Average Joe price, like the GMZ LiteLok, than the Sponsored Racer price of like Walker Evans, Douglas, OMF or HiPer....because no Average Joe can afford those anyways, that's why you only see them on RZR setup for racing, because the manufactures give them to them. I don't know anyone in my group, I ride with, that would spend $200+ for one beadlock wheel.
