Weld Racing Wheels 10SBLRA17SBB Solana Beadlock Wheel 17x10

The Weld Racing Solana Beadlock wheel combines timeless six-spoke mesh design with race-proven beadlock technology for serious drag racing and high-performance applications. Introduced in 2024 as part of Weld's Performance RF series, the Solana Beadlock delivers the perfect balance of vintage styling and modern engineering for street, strip, and track enthusiasts.

Flow Formed Construction:

Built using Weld's proprietary rotary forming process, this wheel starts with a cast preform that is spun at high speed while heated rollers compress and stretch the barrel. This advanced manufacturing technique produces material properties closer to fully forged construction at a more accessible price point, resulting in a wheel that is approximately 15% lighter than equivalent cast wheels while maintaining exceptional strength.

Key Features:

• Full beadlock technology secures tires during extreme launches and high-torque applications
• Timeless six-spoke mesh design complements vintage muscle cars and modern performance vehicles
• Flow formed aluminum construction delivers race-winning strength without excess weight
• Enhanced brake clearance accommodates larger performance brake kits
• Available in multiple bolt patterns including 5-lug and 6-lug configurations
• DOT-approved for street legal use
• Manufactured in the USA at Weld's 140,000 square-foot Kansas City facility
• Compatible with performance applications requiring 700+ horsepower launches

Beadlock Technology:

The Solana Beadlock features a forged 6061 aluminum outer ring that mechanically clamps the tire bead to the wheel, preventing tire slip during hard launches and maintaining consistent tire pressure in extreme conditions. This technology, developed through decades of NHRA drag racing experience, ensures maximum traction and control when power meets pavement.

Technical Notes:

Weld Racing wheels require 60-degree conical seat lug nuts (typically M14 x 1.5). Factory lug nuts from most manufacturers will not seat properly and should not be used. The beadlock configuration is specifically designed for high-horsepower drag racing applications or serious off-road use where airing down below 15 PSI is necessary. Manufactured from forged aluminum with a load rating suitable for extreme performance use.
