depends on the manufacturer of the beadlock - I believe 48 is the "standard" but I could be wrong....

Ours are 48 bolt.
Everybody else that I've seen with 20" beadlocks has 48 bolt rings.

Scott, Do you make them for 20 inch tubeless rims or only for the split rim?

We do 'em for 20" tubeless as well. The split rims require a third lock ring; they're a huge (heavy, expensive, etc.) PITA. The tubeless ones aren't near as bad, but they're still heavy and spendy. Just not as bad as the split rim ones. Neither one is a stocked item--we do the 20's as one-off's 'cause they're not a big seller.

hey mick, get 16.5s, internal beadlocks, you can fit wheel brakes on them too

ballsac has discs on his rockwell, and they are off a GQ patrol and fit inside his 16.5" rims, internal beadlocks and 44" boggers

damn...just thinking about it, i get wood!!

i know what he runs on his. I am in the same club as him!

44's, fuck that i am not paying $1300 a tyre! I can get 20 inch rims with beadlocks and michelins for less than that.

I am not running the drums on my rockwells. I am putting discs on the wheels.

They aren't OEM on anything that I'm aware of. When we have to get 'em, we either order 'em in custom/complete, or order in pieces and do the assembly in-house.

Unimogs have 1 peice 20" wheels. The pattern is almost the same as a Rockwell wheel, just a slightly different circle dia.

Upes, you're right. My mistake.

The bolt pattern is different... Rockwell bolt pattern is 8 3/4" (I think) bolt circle; I think Mog is on about 8 or 8 1/8. (I don't have either handy, and haven't looked at Mog wheels in a long time) Both are giant six-lug patterns.

the 20 inch rims i am using are one piece off a tractor, but i have to fit my own centre to them.

farm equipment uses 20's all the time on manure spreaders the pattern looks kinda like a chev. 6 bolt. kinda skinny though maybe if you put a beadlock on them you would have usable width.

20x10 is what i am using plus beadlock.

Coiled: are you running 52's? if you are it seams like it would be a little wide. I made this rim 10" wide and its a little too wide with the 52's Ithink, next time I am going to make them only 9" wide. I know Michelin recomends 10 wide rim but I'd like to keep it out of the rocks a little more.

i am using 14.00R20 Michelin XL's. I cant find any XML's over here. A tyre shop i went to gave me the book that the michelin sales rep gives them and they do not stock the XML's. They have XZL's and XL's only.


Daniel, i dont own a digi camera, i have to borrow a friends. When i get some time (when i am not cutting, grinding etc!!) i will get some pics.

whats with the XML's? does everyone want them because they are hard to get or do people realy like the pattern. if its the pattern I have a shit load of goodyear AT2A's in perfect condition. I'll get some pics today. But realy is their something I am missing? I dont see any diferance between them and the XL's in performance wise.

Anybody know where I can get ahold of some of those 20" tractor wheels? I looked on Tractor Supply and couldnt find any. Thanks

But Daniel arent the stock wheels the 2 piece ones? I want the 1 piece ones so I can beadlock easy and dont have to run a tube.

To all others with the manure spreader wheels are they 8" or 10" wheels. I would prefer 8s but that is not real important cause I am gonna run beadlocks. Hope I can get some answers so I can get this ball rolling.

coiledbj42,

Do you know how balsac attaches the disc to the hub??

Are you sure hes using GQ stuff?? He said to me that it was GQ but looking at the disc and calipers they only just clear hi 16.5in rims. A GQ setup will clear a 15in rim easily so I doubt that its a GQ disc rotor hes using.

But I would really love to know how hes attached the disc rotor.

the manure spreader wheels are 8" wide or less they will work great.
