i am mounting a set of tires on hiper tech beadlock carbon fiber rims and i was hoping someone might know the torq settings for the bolts. i don't have any directions for the rims and i can't seem to find any info on the net.

Definitely 9-12 lbs. I just got done installing a set a few weeks ago.

I tried looking for the directions on the Hiper website but they don't have them posted.

Between 9 and 11 foot pounds. I talked to them recently and the hub bolts and beadlock bolts are all the same torque.

Ok, I have my instructions in front of me as I type:

Torque center section bolts to 9- 11 ft lbs (108 - 132 in-lbs)

Torque bead-lock ring bolts to 8-11 ft lbs (96 - 132 in-lbs)

Use a 3/8" socket (12 point)


For single bead-lock, use WD-40 lubricant or liquid dish soap to seat the non-bead-lock tire half.

Do not exceed recommended tire pressure and/or 25psi to seat the tire bead.


All returns require an RMA number. :) :)
