i have beadlock in my future but, no cash yet but soon,, i was wheeling this weekend and at one point the wheel started to spin inside the tire,, now earlier in the day i had lost a bead and we reseated it, everything was wet,, i assume that it was spining because the tire was wet,,but is there anyway to prevent this other than the drag car screws into the bead...i know im grasping at straws,, i just need things to hold up for one more weekend trip.. thanks
wets normal. I'd say theres dirt in there too

don't air down quite as much and take it a little easy til ya get your beadlocks?
Sounds pretty normal though...

There's a product made by Tech International called simply "Bead Sealer". Catalog number 735, in a red can.
This stuff works great. It's like liquid rubber that tacks up. Get a can from a local tire shop and goo the hell out of the wheels, it will help.

There are several other products that work alot better than Bead Sealer.
There was a thread a while back about a tube of sealant/glue you could buy at Home Depot for a few bucks. Works really good. I just cant remember the name.
Just remember folks...One day you will want to remove that tire from that wheel...Even that simple can of bead sealer is near impossible to break a wheel down with...

what size rims?? what tires?
a bead sealer will help prevent that, its not hard to break down afterwards, I do it all the time.
