So if I did DYI beadlock a set of reverse wheels, and mounted the tires from the backside (if I could), then would I start blowing the inner bead?

So what you are basically saying is that if I wanted to get some wheels that had like a 2.5" BS then I might not be able to DYI beadlock them, correct?

Man this really sucks................ I've gotta find a way around this. I really want 2.5" or even 2" BS wheels. I might be able to settle for 3" BS but I wanted less than that.

You can do DIY locks on reverse wheels as long as the bead ring is deep enough. I have a spec sheet some where that gives the dimensions and I think I have some notes on which Manuf reverse wheels will work. I will try to find it.

tires can be Horsed on some reverse wheels but you have to be carful not to damage the bead. Beads do not stretch and if the measurment is not right you will damage the tire.
