Who's using them? They sure look cool but I've heard they are a pretty rough ride off road. Any bump steer or other issue with them?

Used to be the 14" BFG AT's in the Rhino days, but I recall they discontinued that size.

I still have a set of them. There's another company that is making them. Downside on rhino is of you have long travel and do any street driving it wreaks havoc on axles. That's why I don't run them now.

15" method beadlock wrapped with 31 10.5 BFG's
I use them around town and in the dirt and rock in havasu.
They are heavy. I do not chase after the top end speed with them. As I would need to change clutch.
Super smooth ride in the streets, but you need to drop the air pressure in the dirt and rocks to soften the ride of them.
they climb and crawl like a billy goat!

These are the sand shoes.
14" HiPer Fusion wheels with 28" STU sand blaster tires.
Been a great combo for Glamis!

I'm going to use mud terrain tires either a 30-31 bfg or 31 toyo. General has a nice mud tire but I don't think its released to the public yet and will be almost 10 lbs lighter than there AT tire. you just have to air them down.

What's a good place on line to order a set already mounted up?

We have one guy in our group with them.
Really hard to mount on rims designed for Rzr's.
Getting the bead to seat is the issue.

But once you get past that they are great and more reliable than any STOCK SxS tire IMHO.
Ride quality better than my ITP's:

this brings up a good point, it kinda slipped my mind... mine were a bitch to mount up. my go to guy wanted nothing to do with the method beadlock's on the bfg. I ended up dropping them off at Outlaw Offroad for setup.

Learning a lot about them.
The bead lock ring has to be just smartly snug and not overly tightened or the wheel may warp or the rim may crack.
Too loose and you lose air.

this too :thumbup:

My HiPer's with the STU's lose air in a couple days when I drop them for the dunes to about 7psi. I don't ever run the bfg's low enuf to notice a leak, that might change as I plan on dropping the pressures here soon to ride in Havasu thru the holidays.

I haven't heard of the HiPer wheels cracking but I had lots off feedback that led me think it was more common with the Method bead lock. btw, your Fusion looks slightly different than mine(?) :headscratch:
