    Yep, I'm with Creighton.

    Will it not turn over at all before it hits the 16.5? That seems like a high voltage to be running on a vehicle. Is it not a 12 volt system?

This weekend I took it apart, cleaned the crap out of the tire and rim, bought all new bolts, torqued them down properly (cross pattern sequence to 20 ftlbs) and the SOB still leaks. It seams to be from the same spot on the beadlock (not the tire, so it is not a rip in the tire). The aluminum bead lock is pretty coned.

    Suggestions?
    Still fighting this, would it be a bad idea to throw a tube in it?

    I imagine the coning could have some effect on the seal. Maybe look into some anti-coning rings? Have you checked with soap and water to see exactly where the leak is coming from? Make sure theres no pinholes in the weld on the rim side of the bead lock?

    You do not need soap to find it, you can feel it. The actual steel wheel looks good. I am pretty sure it is the ring. Traile Ready ssaid they would sell me a new ring for $125, but I am curious, do you think it would be kosher to put a tube in it? That is what tractors do right?

    I think a tube would be ok. Is there such a thing as a 42" tube for a 16.5" rim?

    MC2100 is a good cheap swap, 2150 has adjustment for altitude built in... good carb iverall and they were used all over the place. just check and watch the venturi size.... for a 258 you want the 1.08 not the 1.21 or the other one.....

    Tube should work since the bead lock will keep the wheel from spinning inside the tire. Yes old tractors used tubes. Constant pain in the ass since you can't just plug them whenever they get flat and it costs $80 to get it fixed.

    Mack bolt and steel should be able to cut whatever you need. Harbor freight for wire brushes and wheels.

    So this is something I'll have to brush myself? Is it possible to buy it already brushed? Don't want this to look like ass.

    I don't think you'll be able to buy it locally. Maybe try cabinet makers and see what they got. The ornamental stuff gets expensive.
