17" BTR Beadlock Wheels Walker Evans Racing EMPI Trophy Truck 6x6.5" 17x8.
New old stock NOS 17 inch trophy truck beadlock wheel assemblies with Walker Evans Racing 24 bolt beadlock rings and 24 zinc coated grade 8, 5/16 - 18 by 1.25 inch bolts and washers. These things are race proven! Some of the strongest aluminum beadlock wheels ever available. These suckers have a massive 1 inch thick bolt flange and are manufactured via pressure cast construction. Stronger and lighter than the others.
BTR Wheels were manufactured with many other leading brands including EMPI. The difference is these wheels were designed to be stronger and lighter than the rest. Best of all, they succeeded! Multiple wins at King of the hammers! Have you heard of it?
"The aluminum BTR wheels have a 24-bolt bead lock ring, but 48 blind-drilled and tapped holes in the wheel. We noted that there were no steel inserts in the BTRs, unlike in some competing wheels. We concluded that rather than adding the minor weight of the inserts for longevity of reuse, BTR chose to add twice as many holes, effectively lowering the overall weight and offering a backup mounting hole if the beadlock bolts should strip out the tapped aluminum. The 17-inch wheels weighed in at 33 pounds." ...Motor trend
These wheels have enough material to be re-drilled to 6x5.5 in bolt pattern. We have successfully and fairly easily redrilled unit bearings and other hubs to this pattern.
You won't find a stronger wheel at a better price. These wheels retailed at $599.00 each!
Thank you for looking.
