nice i like the 10 inch rim a bit more than the 8
but other peps on this site say you cant air down on a 10" rim because the beed will pop off.
but cant you drill the rim and screw it into the beed so that wont hapen?
i see that on drag cars but thay use a tube in the slik or is that so you dont spin the rim on the tire?

the screw through the bead is so the tire doesnt spin on the rim on hard launches (drag car tires can have contact patch several inches behind its original position on rim at launch, pretty nuts). You can air down on a 10", you just cant go so low as like 5-6 PSI like you can on an 8. More likely to need to stay around 10 PSI, maybe lower depending on tire/rim. If youve got enough OBA to pop a bead back on, you could air down futher and further until you find the minimum for your tire. Every tire and rim combo is difference

Here are some pics of my buddy's XJ he has 15x10 3.75" BS wagon wheels on 4.5" lift with 35x12.5s.

I have 32x11.5's on my 4.5" lift with no regearing. I have no problem at all. Some would suggest regearing but I haven't had that issue. I have the towing package on my XJ though so my gearing might be different.

What you are talking about is beadlocks and they will prevent your tire to pop off but are usually illegal in most states.
