OK folks, looking for an opinion here. I have these 37" HMMWV tires and 12 bolt rims for my M1008. 98% of driving will be highway and the remaining, who knows. I'm faced with a little dilemma here. I have no beadlock inserts or runflats. What are the pro's and cons of running the runflats? Any balancing issues? I'm not going to be airing down for rock crawling so no worries about the tires getting chewed up. I understand they add quite a bit of weight to a tire/ wheel combo. Today I was shopping for SDR35 PVC to see what it would cost me to make inserts. The runflat idea was once purged from my system but I'm considering them again. FWIW, I installed and aired up a tire without either and once you released the air, the tire fell off the bead. These HMMWV rims have almost no safety bead at all!
