    What size rim(s) are you ordering for?

    Do the kits come with the bolting hardware?

    Is the inner ring smaller in diameter than the outer ring?

    Does the inner ring install require the rim lip to be modified or just prepped and welded to it?

    Thanks,

    Ken

    The rings are for the 21x11x8 rim.

    These are only the rings, no hardware.

    The rings are the same size.

    All you do is just prep and weld.

    So, its for an 8" rim.

    My rims are 12" so I'm out.

    Thanks for answering all of my questions.

    Diagram for 12" wheel bead lock rings.

    Again, the dimensions can be tweaked to fit the specific rim you are working with.

    Helpful hint: You can nest an 8" bead lock ring inside the 12". That's how I do it.

    Why? What would be the advantage, if any?

    Keith, thanks for the diagram,

    By nesting the 8" rings inside a 12" ring the material for the 8" ring is free. Just a more efficient use of material. I always make both together even if I am only after one size ring.

    Keith.

    You're comments refer to cutting them out on a plasma table then.

    I thought you were inferring that the 8" ring should be welded to the 12" ring...

    So far I have orders for two sets. Is there anyone else before I place the order? I plan to do it this week. Thanks
