Ever since I've had this new rail that I bought I've fought and fought with blowing outside bead on the passenger side rear, JUST THE PASSENGER side I might add!! I'm wanting a set of steel, or aluminum 15x12's preferably with bead lock but might consider a set without. Currently running a set of old steel 15x12's but come to find out they were UN-professionally widened and ultimately less headache to just get a good set... I would also consider wheel/tire combo if price is right. Will take vw 4 lug or the Wide 5 circle track pattern (5x10.25) Would POSSIBLY look into a set of narrower wheels (like 15x10) with a set of 31" Boggers. All I've ever ran is V treads but the more I read and talk to people, they're making me a firm believer in cut boggers. Would prefer to find wheels here fairly local but willing to drive a little if it's what I'm looking for. I'm in Glasgow, Ky (bout 25 miles east of Bowling Green), gimme a shout 270-670-5327

Nothing personal to the bogger guys but have you ever ran a set of cut Firestones with about 3-5 psi? Me and a friend had identical buggys with the same size motor but he was running stones and i was running McCrearys,both cut and it was night and day in the difference in traction.Boggers look mean but ive never ran them.

its all where u gonna run them,,,,down here firestones do good,,jus not enough ground clearance in the bad spots,,,on the fresh cut hills theres nothing like firestones,,but on bad rocky ledges like we have,,it will ruin a set of firestones in 1 ride,,jus ask wormy and tool and stacey tylers son,,,

cromer ridge had a lot of sandstone type of rocks and it was like sandpaper to tires,it would just melt layers off.I could be wrong but didnt Interco tires go out of buisness?

Well I got a set of beadlocks for the rear FINALLY!!!lol Not sure of his user name but it was a fellow board member on here that had them, he called me I think the first day I posted that I was looking for a set, can't beat that 8) I ended up with a set of 15x12 steel beadlocks for $125 so can't really complain, I didn't waste any time gettin em on and now I realize part of the problem I had been having with the wheels I've been running. I broke the old wheels and tires down and they had been on the buggy since I bought it and I was under the impression that they were 12" wide wheels...Turns out they were 14" wide, I know now why I had so much trouble with sealing the bead and blowing bead all the time everytime I dropped tire pressure where it needed to be. NOW I'm just lookin maybe for a set of tires...Let me know what you've got
