if the tire comes off with the bead loc you need to go over it, i never had an issue with bead locs when i race my slash with a 4.5 turn motor, if the tires wont blow with that it sure wont with that 3500 kv motor
I keep the glue handy - every third time or so, I blow the bead. Quick glue job with Losi glue and it is ready to go again. It is faster to re-glue than to deal with all of the screws on the bead lock.
that true i went with the velineon 3500 brushless motor an its eating up just about any tire i put on it i've even went with the proline street tire that is alot wider and better tred but its too much power waht should i do
I've had the opposite experience with beadlocks. My glued tires grenaded when I upgraded to brushless after 2 days. I've had my beadlocks on for a week and I've never popped a tire out from the high speed. Good info overall.

Beadlocks suck, they're a fad. Nothing beats glue.
