Good information. That will save a few bucks also.

How much weight does a single beadlock add to the wheel?

I looked on the Champion site and I think it said 3 lbs.

Thanks Floyd, thought it was more but that seems like a decent trade off.

I was wrong. I looked again and they have 3 different weights.
4 lbs, 4.9 lbs and 5.4 lbs.
