Belak 18x12 / 8in BS / 6x4.5in BP / High Pad / Series 3 - Single Beadlock Wheel

This Belak Series 3 wheel is forged from aerospace-grade aluminum, a material chosen for its exceptional strength-to-weight ratio, which is crucial for high-performance applications. The 18-inch diameter and 12-inch width, combined with a substantial 8 inches of backspacing, are designed to accommodate aggressive tire setups and provide a wide stance. The 6x4.5-inch bolt pattern is a common fitment for many performance vehicles, and the single beadlock design is engineered to keep the tire securely seated on the rim under extreme lateral forces, preventing tire de-beading during hard cornering or off-road excursions.

The high pad design on this wheel offers increased clearance for larger brake systems, a common necessity when upgrading suspension and powertrain components. Forging this wheel from a single piece of aluminum results in a more uniform grain structure compared to casting, leading to a stronger and more durable wheel that can withstand significant stress. This process also allows for tighter tolerances and a more precise final product, ensuring that the wheel spins true and maintains its integrity under demanding conditions. The single beadlock ring adds a layer of security for the tire bead, making it a popular choice for vehicles that see track time or aggressive off-road use where tire stability is paramount.

When installing this wheel, ensure you are using appropriate lug nuts for the 6x4.5 bolt pattern and that your vehicle's brake system has sufficient clearance for the high pad design. Proper tire mounting and beadlock ring installation are critical for safety and performance. This wheel is sold individually, so be sure to order the correct quantity for your vehicle.
