Project Black needs wheels... Little help please

[Benjithx]

I need to get some wheels for this build and I think we are going to go with OMF billet center beadlocks, but I am stumped on what color combo to go with.

I am thinking:

Black Bead lock Ring
Black Rim
Black reinforcing ring
Polished billet center

What do you guys think???

[Benjithx]

Here is the wheel with:

Black Bead lock Ring
Polished Rim
Polished reinforcing ring
Black billet center

That is looking good! Can't wait to see the final product. I think it would be sweet to do all black wheels with a polished beadlock ring:p

Douglas rocks all around

[bloodmoney23]

i like the ones ya got posted, but i would do all black rims with white beadlocks. it will accent the bike alot.

[Benjithx]

White? ...Interesting

Nothing against Hiper Wheels, I just prefer aluminum

[spanky101]

i like how the new douglas's look... you could get black wheel and either a black ring or you might be able to get white? not real sure about the white ring. I am talking like the ones on the first posted pics of the epic can am ds450. They arent like all black, they have some silver in there...

[Benjithx]

I think I am still leaning towards all black with the polished center. kinda unique.

White would be cool, but there really is no white on the quad. Just some CF, grey and the aluminum color of the motor.

[Benjithx]

Does anybody have any pics of black beadlocks in different varieties that may help out?

[bloodmoney23]

well as soon as mine come in im getting the ring in white so ill post a pic of that if you want when its done so you can see hwo that looks.

[spanky101]

... im tryin to think, someone on ltr 450 hq does like a covering for stuff, and they can do a carbon pattern, just if you wanted to be unique. i want to say it is K2 Concepts

[yfzrider45]

My opinion would be black hipers all around.....but since u dont like em, maybe the itp trac lock wheels??

[Benjithx]

I made the move this morning. After talking to Bones at OMF (Great Guy) this morning I ordered a set of beadlocks for Project Black.

I got them all black with a polished billet center. I think they are going to look bad ***!

I am amped!!!

I got 8 inch rears and 10 inch fronts.

Now...What tires to run???

razr mx front and rear...

[mx1791]

razr mx rears suck imo and the fronts are worse..

i say ITP quad crosses all around or mxr6 rears with kenda claw fronts

[Benjithx]

What about Maxxis Razr Cross tires?

[klutch]

Razr MX front and rear IMO... though i like the Holeshot MXR 6s too. Klaws aren't horrible....

[Benjithx]

I am also interested in Klaws around?

Joe Bird runs them and he has a zillion holeshots

[8my_Cash]

IMO i say go with the klaws, im really not liking my holeshots.



I just thought of something, if you wanna be old school... in the front get some grooved radials and some turf tammers in the rear.

haha :D
