WTF? I just had some diffrent tires mounted on beadlock rims but something definitly is not right. One is totally flat already.. but when I went to mount up the outer ring.. well IDK? :wondering

Is the bead of the tire supposed to just rest on the outside of the lip of the rim.. then that outer ring clamps down on it and holds it al together or what?

HELP!!!! :rolleyes:

yes the tire bead is suppoast to rest on the wheel lip and the ring clamps and pinches it to the wheel. the one in the pic looks to be mounted wrong its suppoast to be in between the two pieces.

Hahaa!! That's what I thought.. Some people are idiots!

So all I gotta do is let the air out and pop the bead,, clamp it down,, then I'm good to go?
