any word on these?

[Snipe]

Looks like someone used microsoft paint. Look at the cap there is no shadow on the actuall cap. Dont look real to me, not only is there no shadow there is no light hitting it either.

[Jessem24]

no word yet, snipe thats an interesting concept that i never thought of. but why would anyone do that?! lol

[Snipe]

Alot of ppl photoshop there bike pics to show what it would look like with this or how it would look like in that color. Some ppl are really really good at this and unless they told you differently you wouldn't know that it was photoshopped.

But seeing as how that has no indention dent or anything im guessing its a fake.

[honda400ex2003]

agreed with snipe it sure looks to be photoshopped. the black is just too black and such. it really doesnt look like a perfect circle either. steve

[Jessem24]

guys he just replied to my pm. he said his bro in law made them out of a garbage can

[400ex28]

not even worth it on a non beadlock

[rdtrp13]

one of my friends runs late models and they make them out of foam and on the outside he would paint thim with the latex plastic stuff you dip pliers into make the hadels non-cunductive for electrical work (to keep them from absorbing water. i assume the idea would carry over to quads

[KISSmyACE]

haha dang I'm glad I saw this!! I ride with Moparkido and his brother in law, I never thought to ask him about his plugs. Maybe we can come up with a better way to fabricate our own non beadlock plugs.

[quadbod]

DWT make a plug for wheels

[KISSmyACE]

lol can I get a set for 9" rims please :) hahaha

IMO, I dont like mudplugs, because thats exactly what they do. Plug mud. Which is added weight, and a bigger pain in the ***:cool:
