mmm, beadlocks. :)
last time i checked it was 32x4 which is 128, but if you want 160 that is fine with me. 
it wont take that long to tighten by hand.
meh to me the KORE on the side is just like a brand name or running the skull that comes with the ballistic stuff. plus i got a discount if it said KORE on it. LOL

I've seen rings bent and heard of bead lock wheels bent.. gotta really beat on it though.
There's an entire thread on pirate about how those like to jump out of gear.. or have they taken car of the problem?

i read that thread a while back but i think all those issues are fixed.

i actually needed both spares.and i lost the bead because i tore the valve stem so there was no air in the tire when i finally got pulled out.
actually if you had beadlocks you would have been fine. i think having a spare is a good idea but you shouldnt need it.
no because i would have still had a tore/ripped out valve stem..
have you forgot the situation i got myself into? I was buried in the lake, spinning my tires in a soup of rocks and sand. I dont think the ring would protect it.
i still think you would not have lost a valve stem. plus this was hopefully a once in a lifetime retarted mistake. :)
I prefer to not let something as minor as a gash in the sidewall of my tire end my weekend of wheelin... lets just leave the spare "discussion" at that.
i didnt "lose" i just had a nice gash in the side of it lol
and yea, it was one of those tard moments.

Always go with a spare! It can't hurt! A lot of guys out here just leave their spare with their trailer/tow rig. If they need it somebody runs back. That way they're not crusing around with a monster spare tire. Maybe you don't have tire shredding rocks out there like we have here in the deserts like Matt and I do. I've seen all kinds of tires get flats. Even stickies get raped of their air reatining capabilites every once in a while.
Judging from their website they were more expensive then my GLO beadlocks, which came with hardware.
Quality of these were awesome and there are a ton of people that have purchased them.
