High Impact is prod to announce the addition of a new style of aluminum
beadlock to their line. The "Torq Star" Beadlock consists first
of a forged wheel center section welded to a lightweight, strong and resilient
spun aluminum wheel. A forged aluminum alloy inner lock ring is welded in
place of the outer lip of a conventional wheel shell, and steel threaded
nut inserts are pressed into this ring. A formed STEEL outer locking
ring is then secured to the Inner ring by 32 grade 8 bolts. This
outer lock ring is formed such that it accurately fits the bead of a tire.
This means proper centering, easy balancing and leak-free operation,
and a rolled edge so as to not cut sidewalls and for bolt protection. This
is the only thus formed steel lock ring on the market. While aluminum
is desirable for the main portion of the wheel, for beauty and lighter
weight, a steel outer ring is more desirable as this is the portion that
must resist continual direct abrasion by rocks.
Available in Sizes 15x8, 15x10 in all popular bolt patterns including
5 on 4.5", 5 on 5.5", 6 on 5.5" and 8 bolt
