Title: Another Bead Lok question
Post by bakominimamma on 01/29/11 at 4:38pm

OK, so the yellow bead loks, got em from Day Motorsports we think, will not hold. Trying to get them to seal Cooper Cobra's. Kinda seems like they are too deep, like when you put them against the tire you only have about 1/8 inch before the outer ring bottoms out on the inner ring?? Anybody have any ideas other than throwing them in the trash and running a tube and not worrying about a bead lok?? Help!! Please.

Oh ya, they are Arrow wheels if that makes a difference.

foam tape, the stuff they use to put a camper on a truck, put it around the wheel put tire over it, tighten ring, make sure you stager the bolts when tightening so it tightens even, we torque the to about 25 pounds
hope that helps
