Good point. So I'm compliant then being unmodified. Dual beadlock is probably best for actual hardcore users though. I take my 80 to work and back and the 40 is slated for expedition style trips with the young kids. The H1 rims take a lot of work to change tires.
Guess I don't have the right term. Center cut out of the H1 wheel and a 6 bolt (or other) center welded in at the offset you select. I kept mine stock but: Custom Hummer Wheels
I'd be interested to know why as I don't have anything to compare to myself so i don't know if these dual beadlocks are good or bad. Then I'll let the thread get back to single sided beadlocks...

They were the cheapest way I found to get tires in the size I wanted with rims that would fit over the 80 series axles and brakes that I narrowed to fit the 40. It was about $1050 for 5 tires and wheels shipped to me. At the time I figured that was a good deal. In the rear I have a narrowed 80 axle with E-locker and FJ cruiser discs and 40 series backing plate. E-Brake moved to T-Case on the 60 series diesel engine that I swapped in. Front axle is Hellfire knuckles on a 62 series (factory truss of sorts) front housing with the 80 E-Locker and 80 brakes. In other words I had bigger intentions for abusing the 40 initially.
No, you'll probably judge me for it but I have 6 bolt to 8 bolt aluminum spacers that are 2" thick. 2" brings the H1 wheels to zero offset. The spacers that I have seem good so far with no strength issues and more fasteners holding the two halves together than I've seen on some spacers out there.
