Has anyone done this? I have an old set of American Racing rims sitting int the garage and since I have never had any luck selling them would it be worth it to have Champion convert them to beadlocks?

If you have them sitting there, you might as well, but Id get a price quote on OMF beadlocks on those rims first. They are in riverside. Probably a bit closer to you, and you could drive them over that way. Isnt champion up north somewhere?

Does the $137.50 include the outer ring or is that an additional $52.95 ? Total $190.45? All Pro has alum bead locks for $245.45

If you walk in and pay cash, he will do them complete for $100 per wheel. Did mine right on the spot, since I had to drive a whole 45 miles to get there! :flipoff2: Depends on how busy they are now though.

Takes about 2 hours to do 4 rims.

You can get a solid DIY kit from rockstomper.com. Wait, those are steel, are your aluminum?
