:huh whaaa:confused:

it's either a reinforced rim or a bead lock there's no in between the picture you posted is the exact same thing as mine a bead lock bolts down and actually squeezes the bead of the tire, you can't do that with a reinforcement ring

the ring isn't there to do anything for the tire it's purpose is to keep the rim from flat spotting if you can't see it doin nothing than your looking at it wrong

Reienforcement rings keep you from gettin flat spots, why would they need to over lap the tire. :confused:

The guy I bought my 300 from had these done for it. He did so when he bumped tires or logs or whatever it doesn't bash the rim in. This pic isn't the best & a little muddy but you can see them ok, I personally am getting some mudd caps cuz they fill up w/ major dirt.

why do you have a problem with running the tire off the rim if not it's just a waste of money:p

How much do race rings usually cost? Not the rim, just the rings.
