Notice how the tire is separating from the inner side of the rim lip during the burnout and the pass with video on the wheel. Another reason why I like beadlocked wheels on a fast car. These wheels have a ton of rim screws, but that's kinda scary. Wide wheel with little tire;commonly used.

That is kinda scary! I think that realistically, that car needs bead locks, I don't think I have ever seen a rear wheel with that many rim screws!

I'm wondering if its just a radial thing... but you
could see that it pulled in to the screws(and he sure
has enough of them... if I had to put that many in I
would have gone to bead locks)

I've seen video of Pro Stock cars from years ago that would seperate the tire from the wheel.

Wes, do you know what tire/wheel combination he's running? looks like a 275 on a 12" wheel. Whatever it is the tire looks really small for the wheel.

He is running a slick. It is not a drag radial.

So a outlaw 10.5 car can't go past the starting line on the burnout at your track? Wow I guess you don't run any of them there.

the wheel is to wide for the tire...

the tread should be equal or a bit wider that the rim width...tires grow with speed and having tall series sidewalls...there's a reason for bead locks

We get a couple of them now and again...Can't say I have seen a whole class of them run. Still not allowed to go past the beams...DQ'd!

For the record; Charlie doesnt run a radial tire, he runs a 28x10.5 stiff side wall slick. He's has many championships with NMCA and NMRA Hotstreet and Pro Stock under his belt with that stang!
Charlie is a good guy!
And by the way, that car now sports a Pro flight trans.

I wouldnt call that a separation, it just grew and when a tire grown it narrows lifting the sidwall off the bead edge. If there was an issue with that ET and power level it would have showed its ugly face by now.

Rim could be a tad wide for the tire, but I dont see a huge deal there, kinda neat accually.

Who's making those? And what is it exactly?

I see Transact has a set of straight cut gears comming out and a conversion to convert a 727 into a two speed trans with different 1st gear ratios available soon according to their website.

Yeah I know its Charlie's car and what he's done with it. Reason there hasn't been a mishap is because of the amount of screws he runs and the fact that he changes tires like we do underwear. To the average guy who runs pass after pass using up the tire as much as possible, this could be dangerous on a fast car. Its the reason why I posted it.

Its most likely a 12" or 13" wheel with a 28 x 10.5 sitting on it. Thats what most of the NMRA Hot Street and SuperStreet Outlaw boys run on.

Glidden use to run a ton of screws on his wheels a while ago UNTIL a tire came off in testing on the old black car (tire separated itself from the wheel and screws). But that car was always UP N GONE in the 60' like a Pro Stock car.....lol. Beadlocks from then on......

Yeah, I think if I saw that on my car there would be beadlocks on it the next time out.

How about just getting the right size wheels for the tires. There is an accident waiting to happen - not to mention not getting good use of the tire foot print.

A lot of racers, especially the small tire guys are using wider wheels by an inch or so of the tread width. I think the reasoning is that they can run more air pressure and keep a flatter footprint, at least that's what I heard.

Here is my friends car. He has a big tire on the car but is still peels back from the bead at high speed. Bead locks are required for cars 200 mph or faster.
Screws will hold just fine.

I wouldn't drive it. I would just about guarantee that combo is outside the tire manufacturers rim size recommendation - and there sure as hell is more than 1" difference. Rim screws were never ment to be utilized as bead locks. Glad I don't race at his track.

Don't most of the fast stockers run a 12" wheel with a 9" tire? Gives a wider foot print I think. Not going 150 mph though.
