Manny-

Do you have any videos of the Pitbull Rockers and new beadlocks in action? How are they holding up and would you buy them again?

Thanks... glad you enjoyed 'em. The newest video updates are usually posted on my own site, at: http://www.serious4x4.com/videos/

I don't have much video of the Rockers, other than from about (0:45-1:30) in the Hummer Homecoming 2006 video clip (see link above) - I had switched back to the Boggers by the time we did the woods course the next day because 2 bolts broke on the ride home... nothing broke off-road, though.

The Rockers are great tires, and the beadlocks have been great too - the only problem I had was with the bolts that hold together the wheels themselves. I started popping the bolts that hold the wheel halves together while we were driving on the road. The new replacements I got from USA6x6 are a little fat, and require a press to install, so I haven't gotten around to replacing them yet -- as a result, I have been running mostly on the Boggers of late.

I believe the new bolts will resolve the problem - the old ones were as old as the original surplus military rims, and have likely been overtightened more than a few times in their lifetime.

I got a boxful of replacement bolts, and I will be swapping them in for the old bolts soon, so the Rockers should see some more action this winter.
