race rims

[Tommy 17]

wheres the cheapest place for me to find a douglas race rim 8x8. i want the ones that rico has wit the rings on them and i can't find them anywhere but golden west and they are itps. also if i could get them in a tire package that would be great. any help thanks.

[trx400ex]

havent seen any tire packages, and ive been looking

magic racing is the cheapest places i found at 100 even

i think im going to get the package deal rocky mountain has.....beadlocks with 18 inch holeshot mxs... only like 330

douglas doesnt make them with rr ring. But companys that sell the wheels have professionals weld them in. JL have them in my catalog for 90 bucks each

[Tommy 17]

nacs then what kinda are made just itp and reallly how much stronger then stock are these rims i bent all 4 of my stockers.

how are ultimate beadlocks made by douglas aren't they only .160 instead of .190.

[kabd69667]

I have douglas billet beadlocks. They are 8x8. I paid 150 each for them. That is the cheapest i found them

[Tommy 17]

anyone have those james lucky race rims they look like a good deal for 94$ will they bend easy.

[400exRacerX]

Douglas doesn't make race rims, only ITP does. I would just spend the extra 150 and get beadlocks from Douglas, its worth it. I got my 8*8 douglas beadlocks for 147.50 a rim from nacs.

I have the 8x8 Billet Beadlocks too. I would just pay the extra money for them. Its definately worth the extra cash. I got mine from Rocky Mountain ATV. I dont remember how much though. Check your catalog.

ya I agree, those reinforcing rings are OK for just that purpose, "reinforcing the rim"- form a rock or something, but you can s5till knock the tire off the bead with reinforcing rims. double beadlocks are the way to go.

If your gonna do it , do it right the first time go dual beadlocks, it will save you money in the long haul

I got mine from magic racing fer $100 a piece,,and they work great.

[Foxrage]

I got my beadlocks for 130 each from JL racing. They are champion beadlocks with RR ring on the inside.

[Tommy 17]

will u ever bend the ultimate bead locks bc i don't wanna bend another rim they cost to much.

[EX_RIDER]

My friend all ready bent his billet center beadlocks after one track visit.But this he has all ready broke 2 swing arms,axle,frame,subrame, lonestar a-arms

ok in your sig:

Post a pic of the full bore plastics, are they well made? shiny? holes drilled? do they fit well?

[Dave400ex]

I would like to see a picture too.

[RideRed04]

Nacs400ex, you gotta get me in on your cash flow! Your parents give you way too much money!

[rydes400ex]

[Foxrage]

I dont have the plastic yet. I only ordered it. I shouldnt of added it to my sig but i was bored. When i get it i will take a pic.

OMF (909) 354-8272 I have Douglas 190's with race rings inside and outside. Front and back. They have been on my 400ex for about 2 years now. No dents, then again I'm not clearing insane doubles! I had two 89 Quadracer 500's, with the same rims. They took a beating without a single failure. The guys at OMF can help you. If you want it, they got it, or will make it. The best part is they're not jerks. Give them a call. good luck.

[Tommy 17]

that what i wanted to hear char thanks man...

That's the same rims I got,,,OMF rings on douglas 190 rims,,and they work great....here's a pic of em...

[400exRacerX]

Rico, did you weld those rings in yourself?

That's the last thing I need in my hands is a welder..:D No sir,,they came intact with the rims.

[Dave400ex]

Awesome quad Rico.

400ex21 not saying douglas are not strong with beadlocks or rings but carbon fibers are the way to go.i chipped my outer beadlock on my rear wheel called hiper tech up they sent me an outer part(because they are modular)for 30 bucks.if you bend or break a douglas you are s.o.l.its a pretty nice investment i think.....

what everyone would do to buy them. but the way i figure it out right now 100$ a rim and 35$ for each tire thats 270$ for 2 rims and 2 tires and thats less then just one carbon fiber rim....

[400exRacerX]

Yeah not everyone has a ton of money to spend on top quality rims, I spent 147 a rim on douglas champion 8*8 beadlock rims and they have held up great.

[papaw]

yep but when you are hard on rims it makes more sense in the long run.i had a bud who bent a rear beadlock this summer,and he is now buying carbon fibers so he's already out one set of beadlocks and has to buy new ones this winter.if you are hard on rims carbon's are the way to go,they will not bend but they can crack i've done it....but i'm only out 30 bucks for a new half...

Hello everyone.. looking for beadlocks??

I am a dealer for OMF rims, and I can sell rims to anyone at the same prices that the sponsored riders get...

8x8 beadlocks with Inner rings are $125 each...
10x5 (front) beadlocks with inner rings are $150 each...

the lock rings are POLISHED and they are the OMF lockrings.. i believe they have 12-13 bolts in them... these are TOP quality and all brand new...

they are all on Douglass Red label rims...

email me if you want more info

rims@socalquadracing.com

[Tommy 17]

what can u get on just ringed rims wit no beadlocks same ones rico has i won't be buying these till atleast january i am still paying for my engine...

[beerock]

the carbon fiber beadlocks cost $195 a rim.

thats about $60 more than the rims you guys are comparing them to.

BUT YOU FORGET THAT THE CARBON FIBER RIMS ARE DUAL BEADLOCKS.

you guys are comparing apples to oranges.

billet dual beadlocks are like 200+

id rather buy carbons + they are lighter.

by the way Hiper is coming out with a 8x8 dual beadlock rim in january.

you have to use a special hub to use the 8x8's BUT the hub allows a one bolt quick change arrangmetn on the axle

its like a a 3 " diameter bolt that holds the rim on and the axle bolt is inside that bolt.

they said they will be competetively pricing these rims with the hubs.

I am actually waiiiiting for these rims to come out
p.s.

Just when I was about to post this lightning struck and the power went out!!!

that sucked
