Rim squares

[Inntcptr]

Hi All,
Somewhere on here I saw a small bracket type of thing that one would put over the square wheel block and then put on the rim. It is supposed to help the square hub on the rim from spinning out / stripping out. I just can't find it anywhere on here in any of the forums. It fits on the blocks and then the finger/ pin like things go into the rims. Any help would be great, Thanks

Thy do help but I think it is excess weight, that rubes power from you.
If you have good lock nuts and change them when worn you should be ok.

Elcon make them, and they weigh stuff all.

The problem with some rims is that some are missing that support ring on the back side. When you take off the torque spins the rim and if the center ring expands it can spin out or worse crack them. What good will extra power be if you keep splitting your rims.:blush:

You can’t expect the rimes to last forever.
If you want a rim that will last then get a alloy rime.

Thy are lighter than the square support and do make a defiance. Must get a set for me.
