A lot of the guys over on Hellcats.org have the same problem that I do, slipping the tire on the rim enough to mess up the balance and then having a lot of vibration on the road. Most have not had any luck with High Tack. But they are launching a 4,300+ porker with a 1.5 60'.

I have a new set of DRs that will be going on shortly. I am going to try scuffing and cleaning the beads of both the tires and the rims and throwing on some High Tack.

And I see that bead locks are available for either one side or both sides. Is the one side bead lock a cosmetic thing or is it okay to only bead lock one side to hold the tire in place? If locking only one side in place is okay, could I screw just the inside of my rims? I hope to be able to avoid screwing the outside of my Cragars.


Master, again and still
