I plan on getting a mid 80s Chevy Army truck, put a lift on it, and wheel it. This truck would be used for Everything, and i was wondering about bead locks witch one is better a 16 bolt or a 32 bolt bead lock, now mind you this is not an all out rock truck but it would see rocks. any imput would be apprieciated.

Physically the more bolts there are in bead the more even the clamping is and less potential distortion.
