Yo Traxxas can we have this for the regular slash 2/4wd too? It would look awesome on those...

Wish I could get these for my little Hyper Go

Hope they have better inserts than the standard open cell junk.

Do the wheels break?

Very cool, but I'm thinking the extra rotational mass is strain on the drive train.

Not only that, but beadlocks are so unforgiving. Maybe it's just me. Don't get me wrong, I love the look, but under stressful turns (even lightweight platforms on 2S LiPo power)... popping a bead is not fun... I put my driving style under "normal bashing" category/circumstances.

Yea aluminum wheels or beadlocks are really only for low power trail trucks or crawlers, or display / shelf cars.

Well to be fair some drag tires are beadlocks

I don't think these are"true" beadlocks. The piece in the tire is glued to the tire.

Yeah, these aren't real beadlocks. Tires are glued to the inner rim. The metal wheel is the center, hen the "beadlocks" is just a trim piece.

Yep! But they do look nice.

We could all use a little bling.

It appears that it's not a complete aluminum wheel as we think of it. This is more of a system.

Ah, yes. I see the needed pre-glued tires now.
