H2 Rims?

[nick c]

Whats the draw to running H2 rims? I was browsing the Pirate forsale section and saw several sets. My neighbor has a H2 and I didn't think I saw anything special about them.
:eeek:

Budget bling. They are 8 lug and usually are cheap take offs from dealers since most H2 assholes want a set of blingin 20's or whatever waste of money...

Also are like 4.5± BS

Or get the H-1's double beadlock's really nice:awesomework:

 

[nick c]

well yea I know all about the H1's which is why i was confused on the H2's...

Partly because the H2's are a factory(cheap) 17" wheel. All the good tires come in 17".

+ aluminum...

H2's according to Mauler are one of the best (quality & strength) aluminum rims on the market, even if they are :rb: factory.

The inner bead holds just fine without a beadlock. I've had mine burp air at 6 psi but they never lost a bead.

does trailready do beadlocks for them?

Wish my tires were 17" and not 16", I want some H2 rims for my Dawdge.

That's really all the input I have. If I was going to run them on a wheeling rig without spacers and/or drive flanges, I would be paranoid about how vulnerable they would leave my lockouts up front, but that's just me.

Yep.

On Pirate you can find do-it-yourself beadlock kits for H2 rims...but you can also find a lot of failures with that kit as well...
