I'm under the impression that beadlocks are part of the rim itself, and as far as I know, illegal for onroad use - cant understand why though...
You can buy beadlocks seperate and put them on yourself, just need to know if they will work with the sunraysias!! They are going on with my simex centerpides, only go on when I want to go out for a play
Im pretty sure you can put external beadlocks on sunnies. Have you had a look at internal beadlocks? They are less prone to leaks and easier to install.

Yes you can fit them to sunnies, but you cant just "take them off" as you have to weld the inner ring onto the wheel, then the outer ring bolts on. What size simexes are you thinking of running?
External bead locks are illegal to run on the road, but what isn't these days LOL.
They can be a real dog to balance, 1 of my mates had 35" bead locked simexes on his GQ and had close to 1kg of wheel weights on his rim plus about 6 golf balls in each tire (apparently they work like a for of auto balance)

What's the rims and offset you're running? I thought the 15" rims didn't fit, at least not with out some... modification of the brake caliper... I've been eyeing off some maxxis bighorn 32x11.5x

I see, any idea if 0 offset 15" rims would have too many dramas?
