Beadlocks are designed to pinch the lip of the tire in the wheel itself, to prevent the tire from unseating during lower air pressure scenarios (drag racing ripple wall tires, rock crawling, etc...). There really isn't enough tire lip to pinch in the wheel itself, when you're running stretched tires, as they are far too narrow for proper mounting.

Although I can appreciate you requesting info. on this, at this time it isn't possible for a street use application.
