Anyone running Hutchinson Rock Monster wheels?

[200 Custodian]

Are any of you Atlanta-ish guys running Hutchinson beadlocks? I'd like to buy them, but Hutchinson has less than helpful and I have concerns that they won't clear the front brakes on a '16 200.

If anyone has those wheels and is willing to let me try to fit one of their wheels to the front of the 200, I'm happy to compensate you for your time in beer, welding, or even some currency.

Indeed he is, and I got very excited until seeing the photos. They're six-lug, and I need five.

Time for an axle swap

Have you tried calling them? The people I have talked to were very helpful so I would think they would be able to help you figure this out. If you know what your current wheel back spacing is that would probably help to compare to the hutchinsons.

Also, @robustbambi should take that for sale thread down, he sold those wheels a while ago.

As a matter of fact, one of their engineers called me yesterday and gave me the dimensions I needed. The narrowest diameter of the inner barrel is 415.3 mm. The radius from the center of the hub to the farthest part of the caliper is 209 mm, and I'd like another 6-8 mm for wheel weight clearance. These aren't gonna work.
