Really impressive truck there. You have some great engineering and fabrication skills too! Thanks for sharing!
 
I love how out of the box this build is. Thanks for the write up, always been curious when in the past you have posted little tid bits and pics.
 
Those tires are sick, it looks like the wheels you have for the goodyears are beadlocks? they have an inner piece of pipe (PVC) between them that keep the tires to the wheels?

Great pics BTW

The images just above look to just be standard 3-piece wheels. Not any sort of beadlock.

Know the manufacturer? If you can separate them in two halves you should be able to add the PVC insert and double beadlock them.

I'll leave that up to the OP to answer. I'd have a hard time believing the little bolts that are to hold the rim together would have any sort of strength enough to hold at the beads. Usually those have all those massive bolts like the HMMWV type rims.
 
Very nice, you have done some very interesting things to your rig.
I am interested in the air bag set up & willing to test this out in the future.
Keep posting up....
