Anyone running TSL/SXs on Champion beadlocks ?

I'm thinking of upgrading but remembered the absolute ballache I had mounting SSRs to them.
I'd have thought the TSL/SX had an even thicker bead...

Anyone running this combo and how hard were they to fit ?

Cheers

I had SXs on MRT beadlocks. Sweet setup, i could run at 2psi with no worries. The SXs are some tough mother f*ckers. I used Equal internal balancing powder to balance them. The keeps the tires perfectly balanced whenever they are turning.

I have the SSR's on my Champions which wasn't too bad to mount. A friend has had Boggers and SXs on his Champions and they were definitely more dificult, but still we did it.

What is equal internal balancing powder and where do I get some? I have no end of trouble trying to balance my 40s.

if you lube the tire and the rim good you can pop them on there with just your knee. i just mounted 4 38.5 sxs on 11 in rims. as long as they were lubed, i never had to touch them with a tire iron. mike
