Why are these wheels so much more expensive? BEADLOCKS! | Project 250R Part 10

[@MichaelSabo]

Thanks for watching! What kind of beadlock do you run? Next week will be a video showing the mounting of these tires and some Project 250R welding before we send the parts to powder coat! 🤘

[@DawidSlodyczka]

Uhhhh, I planned to get beadlocks but got no clue what to get tbh. Been thinking of goldspeed but still leaving my options open still.

[@nathanm.3713]

Did you ever post your banshee speed run with the 22in tires and the bigger front sprocket?

[@MichaelSabo]

Goldspeed makes a good wheel; I damn near bought those instead of OMF

[@MichaelSabo]

No, I spent 2 days filming it and ran into issues with the local ordinance complaining while John and I were doing the runs and trying to fix the speed wobble. I will get around to doing that but right now the 250R is my focus.

[@nathanm.3713]

Michael Sabo right on man can't wait to see where you take the 250r build 👍

[@tracybrown8316]

I've been to the omf facility got a tour from the owner small facility but top notch equipment he showed the start to finish of making wheels and headlock rings

[@EliteRidesandTides]

I ran Douglas and Holeshots when racing quads in California, what all the boys ran...

[@MichaelSabo]

Nothing bad to say about DWT; great wheels

[@michaelboots7690]

Those black wheels look killer!

[@jades323]

Just want to say I’ve been subscribed since you’ve had close to nothing subscribers and I’ve watched it grow and personally I think you should have way more followers because your content is great and very thorough. But don’t let the numbers bother you just keep doing your thing I enjoy the vids a lot.👍

[@867diesel]

sweet looking wheels for the R . I tried holeshots a couple of times . the guys I rode with on the mx track in the early 2000s use to have all kinds of tire set ups for each track and conditions . my favorite was the maxxis razzr . when I had holeshots I found that they slid out easy on turns when you charged them hard in most mx track conditions . the maxxis razzr I never had a problem they hooked in every condition . lately ive been running the gbc xc masters because their half the price of maxxis not as good of side walls but they hook like maxxis in my opinion for the xc series I run

[@MichaelSabo]

Thank you for the info man. This will be the first time ever riding with holeshots but I've run Razr's before and loved them. I hear really good stuff about the GBCs too but I've never tried them.

[@josephpacheco7508]

Have you searched to find balancing beads/balls for the banshee? Idk if you can find em for that use but I know of guys running in super swampers on trucks.

[@michealwedderburn1022]

Sick wheels bro🔥🔥

Thank you bro!

I'm Mark from HSD at 04:55 and I'm slowly adding all the parts that Mike is using on project 250R here: www.hsdracing.com/M309R-Patriot-Prodlist.html

[@arturo5819]

Put those tires on regular wheels and have them balanced for the high speed run.

[@250race]

Do you run a 6" front wheel if you do you should run a 3" off inter and outer. This will allow equal pressure all the way across your will and less tire shake. Do you have a camber caster on the quad? If so we set are cars at 9% to 11% with 1/8 toe out.

[@MichaelSabo]

Thank you for the info man; I've seen some other people running 6 inch wide front wheela and wasnt sure if it was a typo. These front rims are 10x5(4+1)

[@250race]

@@MichaelSabo That what us guys run on are 250 and 600 micro sprints You're running a 10inc wide front rim?

[@250race]

Buy a set off non bead lock rim 10" 3"3" off weld wheels I think they are $88 use soap when setting the bead. It should set with 10 to 15 psi. I mounted over 300 of these tires

[@michaelosullivan8288]

Holeshot is best tires and what your favourite bead lock rims

[@iancook123]

What size rim and tire, please?

[@williamjessop8616]

I love black wheels those are sweet

[@brokebikemtb4448]

Hey mike those Ebay wheels arent a total loss....a set of beaters are always handy...if you know a guy with a lathe...you can put that groove on there

[@Lynxz223]

Cant wait to see this one

[@jacobhenson3952]

Bro I just found your channel and you should have way more subscribers than you do but u will get there. I love the raptor build by the way. Did u keep it or sell it ?

[@MichaelSabo]

Thank you for watching my videos bro! I loved that Raptor but I needed to sell it to fund the 250R project sadly.

[@piotrtomaszek5316]

Hi my name is Pete I just got into spots quads , I have been riding dirt bike for ever, and I was wondering if you have made a video on tire size to rim size , or can give me some info on how to match tier size to rim size. Hope this makes sense. Thanks

[@conniestevenson226]

Try to have the rim narrower then the tire by two or 3 inches if you can. But depends on what your doing.

[@just_braap1935]

Ho yeah 1min left!!!

[@dustinrichards8401]

Goldspeed wheels are really good

[@anthonymechling1434]

Watched the whole video and you didn't show me how to mount a wheel on a rim🤔. But you did mount the tire on the rim good. Great video tho bud.

[@MichaelSabo]

Haha, thanks for watching the video in its entirety; the second part of the video will be up next week where I show mounting the OMF

[@anthonymechling1434]

@@MichaelSabo Hell yeah bro I'm from NE Ohio I know the history of the 250r can't wait to see this one done. I know it's gonna be a beauty. Keep up the good work...

Were is your Banshee now-a-days??

[@MichaelSabo]

In storage; she will be back

[@tyways1]

When are you gonna start building

[@MichaelSabo]

Once all of the parts get here; hoping within 2 weeks; everything is ordered.

[@pathetic_bot9476]

Damn those wheels are pretty trick bro

[@barkus921]

The way I see it, is the 250r or banshee won’t make enough hp to spin those on the wheel imo. But smooth with the lip would be good on the omf. Be a MF to seal up if they leak, the wheels look bad ass.

[@MichaelSabo]

I kind of agree that they're not going to make enough power to spin the tire on the rim, especially on dirt. But if you go to the track, pros are running beadlocks so there has to be a reason, something maybe I'm un-aware of.

[@barkus921]

Michael Sabo absolutely, thinkin of how you’d be spinning the tires. And flyin through the air probably be a bit different now that I think of it lol.

[@gompie250]

@@MichaelSabo you mentioned it in your video yourself, low air pressure and high speed cornering will make it pop right off ;)

[@MichaelSabo]

@@gompie250 that makes a lot of sense; high speed cornering. Honestly wasnt thinking of that at the time. Excellent point!

[@conniestevenson226]

Its more for keeping bead on tire from side pressures like a rock or hard fast turns with low air pressure

[@jesuscobos7243]

I don’t think it wasn’t centered i think it just wasn’t balanced

[@MichaelSabo]

It's possible.

[@74elsinore]

I agree

[@conniestevenson226]

Tire heights are not exactly equal either. Especially with cheap tires.some have bulges at random spots also.dragster racers even measure new tires and cut them to exact same heights since they are usually are not and have random bulges or high spots on brand new tires.over inflating to seat bead can supposedly cause bulges as well

[@liamsilver4843]

You need to balance wheels when you go 100

🤘👊

[@filynv582]

250$ each????

[@lucky7thejeep695]

400 per wheel but they’re so worth it. I work for omf tho so I’m biased

[@SethMullins418]

Shouldn't start the video saying GD but liked everything else

[@MichaelSabo]

Thank you man. And I do not mean to offend anyone; I appreciate you're feedback.

[@josephinecarter8043]

Lol

[@itsallaboutwins5493]

So you'll bleep out one swear word, but not GD? I'm not going to try and pull a religious rant on you, but have some class man.

[@MichaelSabo]

Lmao. Don't be gettin triggered over there bro; just words.

[@NorCalSaint]

Doesn't the lip on the ring help to center them on the cheaper ones? Can you just balance them just like a motorcycle or car wheel??
