I've priced having my H2's sent off and having an outer beadlock added.  However I've checked on Staun's and they are about the same price and prove beadlock for both the inner and outer.

Looks like you may have to drill a hold in the wheel for the beadlock valve stem.  I'd say a tire shop would have to dismount one side of the tire to install the inner beadlock and then remount the tire.

They are kind of a PIA to do yourself. I know Safari sells and installs them if your looking for a local vendor.

No, I was referring to the staun internal beadlocks.

Your best bet if you really want to beadlock your current wheels with a weld on kit would be to contact Champion or allied and see if they will do it.  I haven't seen any Do It Yourself kits for aluminum wheels.
