I know that real beadlocks are not legal on the street (at least in OR, I dont know about WA or elsewhere), however, with all the new "street locks" out there, has anyone had any problem with the cops over them?
In your opinions, what are the pro's and con's to running beadlocks for a street/trail rig (one thats driven to the trail head)?
My rig is street legal more or less right now. If they wanted to write me up, they could hit me for flares, mud flaps, license plate light, side markers and probably a few other things if they really wanted to.
I am looking at new tires soon and thought I would look into the beadlocks a little bit and also into the ceramic balancers (beads inside the tires) before I decided what to do.
Thanks.
