I have them, and knew they where double beed locks, but mostly bought them because how cheap they where. I run them on my 40's, with no runflats. Just curious as to what makes them double beed locks. Is anyone else running my set up, that is 40,s with no runflats, what psi can I go down to before I need to start worring if they will come off the beed? Thanks

What makes them what?

What is your setup?

"Woundering" about what?

You need to be a little more proficient in your writing skills so we can understand what you want to know.

You are just running the stock H1 rim with no runflat or any kind of insert, correct? If this is the case you are running a wheel that is capable of being a double beadlock, but is not being used that way. You need to use some type of insert to lock the tire beads between the rim edges. For example you have this when you don't have an insert:

You need to add a ring like this pic shows in order to "lock" the tire beads to the edges of the rim. There are several vendors on the board that sell these.

They have the PVC run flats. The mag run flats can be found on ebay and here.

H1 rims have 7" of back spacing so running them on DRW axles are fine, otherwize you will need some spacers.
Cheap ? how cheap?

Before you go ordering from them, do a search on them here. It may be better now, but he has a lot of unsatisfied customers here.

Yup. Try Stazworks or CJDean66 (or some variation of that) for a good vender who supports the board and has excellent customer service.

Sloping driveways definately suck, only mine here in WV is probably even longer and steeper than yours...I lost a tire once and it ended up almost 1/2 mile away down the hill.
