[QUOTE="Erjdrvr, post: 1337527, member: 30543"] Had a couple questions on installing the factory bead lock rings (True Bead Lock Conversion)? I have read the following threads: [URL]https://www.fordraptorforum.com/threads/beads-locked-psis.64327/#post-1301111[/URL] [URL]https://www.fordraptorforum.com/threads/ford-bead-lock-capable-wheels.52389/#post-1097194[/URL] 1) I've got a 2018 w/ factory bead lock capables & just purchased some VenomRex 17" 602's from Nick @ Apollo (He matched a competitor's price...Thanks Nick). Anyway those will be my "daily driver" wheels and I plan to purchase some KM3's to install on the factory rims. My off roading will be in Indiana, Michigan, & maybe NC or GA. Terrain would be dry dirt or Northern Michigan sand and I understand that Silver Lake Sand Dune requires running tires at 15psi. QUESTION....based on my use would there be any risk of popping the KM3's off the bead (w/o the bead lock rings) or any other benefit to the bead lock rings in my situation? 2) I also understand the Non DOT aspect and the additional maintenance required, periodic re-torqueing of the ring bolts & monitoring the PSI. But can anyone report any other experiences, positives, or negatives from running the factory bead locks (True Bead Lock Conversion) on the highway? Thanks! [/QUOTE]
