Anti-coneing rings

[TonkaToy]

Should I use them or not? Is so where can I get them? I can't find anyone on the web with them for sale.

Thanks

Great lake off road sells them with his beadlocks. But I don't think you need them.

yes you def. need them. just get some 1/8" by 1/2" flat stock and roll it around the wheel. thats what we do here.

The coning doesn't really affect much. It's more asthetic. IMO.

Thanks guys. I'll try to make some and go from there.

without the ring you dont have nearly as much clamping pressure on the bead of the tire and just the other week i saw one come off the bead and start leaking air

If you don't run them you'll be tightening your bolts after every ride or so. Trust me.
