keep the lug nuts tight!!!!! check them before every run you do!!! even two or three times in one day. i just destroyed a 2 hour old set of beadlocks

i almost threw up after i looked at it. it was only the second time i had run on it!! ITP said send us the wheel, we will look it over and send you a new one.

tltcracing: what did u torque your wheels to?

Posted by: Flodies400ex

that looks like you melted the wheel lol and man I had a friend that had those wheels and he jumped real high and he bent the crap out of the wheel and I dotn have those wheels but i am thinking not to because I jump all the time so i just dont want that to happen to me lol damn that sucks 150 dalla wheel damn lol

i dont have a tork wrench but im pretty good at gessing.

ill tell you why your holes wallowed out like that....its simply because your trying to used a taperd stock lug nut with them wheels and they aint made to use taperd lug nuts...you need to get a set of flat ones when your using anykinda aftermarket wheel like that...

Thats what I do with my hipers. Two years no problems.

Same here!!! then when i put the Honda rims back on i just turn them around.I have Douglas and oem so its easier then changing them all the time!never had a problem!

Posted by: KOG

yep i turned the backwards and i put washers on them

Posted by: tltcracing

i had the nuts on backwards (correct way for the wheel) but have alwase had probs keeping them tight. do the Pro Lock wheels that ITP came out with have tapered holes? if they do i think i will get those ones.
