GEN 2 Ford Factory F150 Raptor beadlocks

[Rmax150]

Just take them off. As mentioned, if they use the pry bar, they will get scratched. I loosened them with a ratchet then put the torx socket on my regular drill to screw them out quickly. To tighten, just do a slight snug; no reason to torque them all crazy. Attached is a pic of what they look like without the ring.

I don’t buy it.

Well when they scratch yours don’t come crying on here.

right, I think the dealer has best deals on tires anyway, and I will for sure remove the rings before I take them to the dealership when the time comes to get new tires.

Jim, I'm pretty sure the dealer can deal with your beauty rings. Besides, you need them on at some point to balance them.

The beadlock tires are a pain in the ass. I am not sure why owners get them. And I bet most owners will never truly use them as intended.

Because I like the looks of the beadlocks - they rock! And since they're not real beadlocks, I'll be using them exactly as intended.

I left my beauty rings on I just got tires last week dealer had no issue with them. And if they came out and were marked up I would’ve had them buying replacements.

Let’s face facts. The most hideous thing about this pic is not crack attack, it’s his antiquated way of holstering his phone.
