Prev
At 4 psi there were no surprises after putting the tires and the rig in some precarious positions. The tire bulged quite severely and held the bead over all types of different terrain. We then winched Lichty's heavy, 1-ton axle-equipped Scout sideways dragging the tire across a log. The rim separated from the tire about an inch, the bead was held the entire time. The tire eventually folded over itself, but the Inner Air Locks still held both beads. We were definitely convinced of these bead locks' performance after spending a day with the folks from Inner Air Lock.
