They are fine on the road as long as you don't listen to Method giving you the torque #'s. Other than that, I have not seen the real need to have the beadlocks.

I like the kmc xd enduro bead locks and pro am. Still Taking a desition.

Do the bead locks rims need a constant tire psi check, because of air leaks on the lips?

I had KMC enduro beadlocks..... Junk. Stripped out at 14 ft lbs, when required torque was 20-25 ft lbs. Be careful.

Yep I was thinking about KMC at one point but WSI's warnings made me look elsewhere. Thanks! You cant go wrong with ProAm.
P.S. KMC are made in China Lol!

Agreed. My KMCs are a bitch. My next set will probably be TR or or an OMF retrofit with nuts holding the rings on how it should be.
