I'm not sure if anyone has posted this before, but I think using beadlocks on my Savage would be good for me since I could just change the tire without gluing it so there's no harm to the tire. Would this be a good idea?

I think they are a good idea. Wear out or blow out a tire and all you have to do is unbolt it and install a new one. No more worring if your glue is going to hold or if you are going to be able to re-use your wheels after your glued-on tires are worn out. Plus, they just look freaking cool!!!

Maximizer makes beadlocks you can use on a Savage, Maxx, or any truck with a 14mm hex. They are not cheap though, about $45 per pair if I am not mistaken.
 
i got those 23mm ones(i dont use them but...). I find them too heavy...the weight of the truck w/those on is ridiculous i find...JMO
