Hummer (the real one) wheels

[TheHollands]

So i have been looking for new wheels and tires and came across this site http://www.trailworthyfab.com/209-8-Bol ... ecial.html

seems to be an great price for some 37" tires and some double bead lock wheels. anyone have any personal experience with these?

ya Ive used them on the real hmmwv. Work good but make sure you get the plastic insert they had magnisum ones for a while still do once and a while. as you can imagine they are not a good idea. Other than that real easy to use on thing to watch is there is no back space and i dont recomend using spacers my .02. oh the tires suck on everything except the street in the hmmwv at least.

The big bulky magnium thing that was inside the tire was actually a run flat, it allowed you to keep driving if your tire was shot at (happend to my first sgt during desert storm)

Ya been there done that. The problem with that is you throw sparks no on a diesel not a big problem but with gas I dont want that.

Roger has a set of those recentered for the yota bolt pattern, the wheels themselves work great with the pvc inserts.

For the tires though, im not a fan, they are good for what they are designed for, heavy military vehicles not going above 65-70.

run a set of their wheels and get some tires to match them in my opinion.

you might try this place too

the place i linked will recenter them and sell you the pcv inserts. if i dont go with the used hummer tires it looks like super swamper is one of the only tire mfg that makes a 16.5" tire.

Pitbull makes 16.5"

Are these for your JK? Keep in mind these wheels are very heavy & hard on your axles & steering.
The price is hard to beat for Beadlocks.

Rather spend money on a.set of 17 in steels and DIY beadlocks. That way u have tons of tire options. I have a.set of walker Evans. And would highly recomend buy a nice set of wheels once and.be done.with it. I will never.go back to a.set of.steels
