Axial Yeti 2.2 Front/Rear Beadlock Wheel Set Aluminium 6-Pole Swirl - YT1006SWF/R2 by GPM  [YT1006SWF/R2]

Upgraded beadlock wheels for Axial Yeti 2.2

This aluminium beadlock wheel set is supplied as two pairs for the Axial Yeti, finished in a six-pole swirl pattern for a scale look. The beadlock system secures the tyre bead between inner barrel and outer ring and is sized for common 2.2" tyre fitments used on rock racers and trail trucks.

Fitting is as with any beadlock: seat the tyre bead between the two rings then tighten the ring-to-barrel fasteners progressively to avoid pinching and ensure even seating. These machined aluminium wheels behave differently to injection-moulded plastic rims, so expect a firmer rim characteristic and re-check fastener torque after initial running and after tough trail sessions.

As a tuning move, aluminium beadlocks alter rotational inertia which can affect acceleration and steering feedback on technical climbs. Opt for these when rim durability and bead retention matter, and adjust tyre selection and shock settings to keep predictable traction and handling.

These beadlock wheels are aimed at hobbyists who need a tougher aluminium rim for Axial Yeti 2.2 tyre setups, providing solid bead clamping and a distinctive six-pole swirl finish while requiring routine checks and setup tuning for best trail results.
