How To Mount Pro-Line Krawlers on RC4WD Beadlock White Wagon Wheels 

I got a Real K5 blazer that has those rims lol. It's on 43" interco Super swamper TSLs it's a absolute monster iv had it since high school. And I got the same RC Trx4 bronco and the blazer as well and then I done my two element trail walkers both blazers I love it

The Tools you use really hurt my feelings!

Thanks for this video! I just ordered these wheels and 2 different size hex adapters, I also ordered the rc4wd ground hawg tires so the ring should work I'm hoping. I would have had a much harder time figuring it out if I hadn't watched you do it. It looks time consuming and to some people that's not fun but I'm retired and I also build scale models of tractor trailers so I'm good! Lots of patience needed for this hobby too. Those ground hawg tires were on a lot of trucks in the 70s and 80s. All the truck pull and serious mud guys ran them.

Great video. I just went through this exact process. The RC4WD wagon wheels that come with the hex hubs also come with a couple longer screws to make getting them started easier.

Like you said in the end, you hope it helped me out, I think it did! I ordered these wheels without really knowing much about them, I certainly didn't know they'd be this much work to assemble, so the tips were really valuable. Also nice to see your process figuring it out, and of course testing them in the end. Really well put together video, was worth all 20 minutes watch time!

Man I have those wheels thanks for this is a good idea,i love the looks of those on my trx4 too

I was trying build a scale looking Ford Bronco. I had the very same problem with the RC4Wd stamped steel wheels. I needed to change to a 12mm hex. RC4Wd does sell the adaptors. I had the very same problem, I wanted the studs and bolts on the outside of the wheel. I was not able to do that. I ended up buying another set of wheels that were plastic just so I could get that look that I was after. I guess that is the way it goes sometimes.

There’s a video by Proline that tells you what the re-sealable bag is for.

Hey great vid! If you take a dremel or file to those cap head screws you were trying to use with the wheel hex, you should be able to make enough room so that you can mount them like you were saying so that the actual nut is facing outward and it will give it more of a scale look 👍 Congrats in the milestone btw, keep up the great vids!

If you want the rubber to be stickier or make them sticky again, spray the treads/lugs with PB-Blaster. Let it sit on there for no more than 3 or 4 minutes. Any longer and it can start to destroy the rubber and lugs could tear-off. You can use Simple Green or other de-greaser to neutralize and get the PB-Blaster off.

I have those rims on mine trx4 land rover and was wondering a difference Center nut. Mine are very loose on the hex when fully tightened

I have a set of wheels I've not been able to get any tire on them because it's like that inner ring isn't the right size or something. For a while I just thought I had to use a different brand of tire because the rubber bead of the proline tires was just too thick, but if this ring wasn't so thick then I believe I could get any tire to fit on these wheels with no issue

Those white wagon wheels were popular back in the day on Broncos. I’m going to put “jellybean” slots on my Bronco.

Wow, you sacrificed one of your nice wheels for the sake of your viewers, ouch LOL Great recovery though, you've earned a new Sub today bro!

The only thing I don't like about certain beadlock wheels is they aren't vented to allow the tire to flex. I have a couple sets for my Summit. The one set is RC4WD Rok Lox on a cheap set of chinese bead locks (vented) with no foams and the holes hot glued shut. They were my first set of beadlocks with my first set of aftermarket tires. I had my eyes set on RC4WD Rock Crushers for a long time and they were out of stock since I first seen them. A week after I bought the Rok Lox, the Crushers came in stock finally. I right away ordered the Crushers and I didn't want to swap tires out on my old bead locks so I bought a new set. This time the wheels were Dick Cepek, unfortunately not vented. I could drill holes in the wheels or tires, but I really don't have the desire to do so. My Rok Lox I had left the foam out and run just ambient air pressure. They flex a little too much and the Summit rolls more than it does with the crushers or the stocks. I will put the foams back in them and unplug the holes, but it's about 20 or so screws per side and I will have to undo them all to prevent rips to the tires or foams. So needless to say, I'm not in a hurry to unscrew about 200 screws. Lol. The wheels you put on your bronco definitely look good and look as tho they are vented. I have been on the search also for 2 stage foams for a 8.26 inch tall tire. I have yet to have found any.

The bag is to keep the tires fresh when not in use. Is says it on the bag.

Also I ended up getting the generic version wheels,they seem jus fine so far,add some necessary weight

Simple green does work, the water has to be hot. really try it!

Yeah this is awesome dude, appreciate you sharing, Broncos looking good, way awesome place to go crawling yeah love it, i'll be watching for more from Manchester Michigan

These things are PITA to mount. The Amazon wheels are much easier and they are just as good if not better.

Question: Did you lube and clean the Traxxass tires, prior to that first run? I have 3 sets of wheels for my Bronco, for diffeerent type runs, this includes a set of the original Traxxass wheels, they are good tires, though deffinitly not as grippy as my Hyrax (Predator) or the Pit Bull (Alien) compounds though they can last a lot longer and cost less. I purchased four complete sets of the Traxxas stock Bronco wheels for $20.00/set online. My Hyrax and Pitbulls are mounted on Aluminum beadlock wheels.

What kind of servo and motor do you have on that rig

man...that was intense, I'm loving this rock crawl thing and the Bronco looks or some

Are the tires a 2.2 ?

You should clean your tires with Varsol.

recently got a set of the RC four-wheel drive wheels and I found that they were absolutely no better than the cheaper ones you buy Amazon actually I could GET two sets of wheels on Amazon for what the one set of RC four wheel drive wheels cost what a waste of money.. . I'll check it out next time before I buy .. actually you can buy wheels with tires already mounted a lot cheaper than just the R.C 4.W D wheels .. they're all made by the same company anyway

Where did you buy the adapters??

Very good video but to much custom work. I already get tired. I want rims like these to direct fit in my trx4 , but i see i must know engineering . Wtf guys ? Is there any solution to fit wheels like these in my stock trx4 tires ? Can anyone help ? In the video i see so many parts and halls and all of that. I am sure, i must give the half of my salary to buy a 4 metallic beadlock wheels. Is there any solution ? I have buy in november 4 cheap aliexpress wheels like these. but they can't fit perfect in my stock trx4 tires and i quit to install them. What a waste of money. Sorry man , but i want 4 beadlock wheels like yours to fit in my trx4 nothing else.

Are you new to this?

Hi, Nice truck. Where can I buy it?

Cool video! Please get some quality tools! You will love them.

You don't have to buy the optional 12-millimeter hex I just drilled mine out he worked perfect I did that on three sets of wheels one was RC 4-wheel drive Wheels which I'll never buy again they are so overpriced

Hyrax is the best,, stay away from rc4wd wheels,, ssd makes a better wheel,, you are rite,, stay away from simple green or any type if detergent,, wd40 bath for the whole rig ,, get some heavy brass on the axles (stay away from sprung weight) and that bronco can and will crawl anywhere

Use threadlock......

Crazy you need adapters AND rings just to use this garbage to get a decent tire on it.

What a pain in the ass

Noobs gotta start somewhere lol

Haha what did you mean at 0:51?

Use quality tools....
