depending on the type of DIY beadlock it may or may not have a way to properly center the tire. Most center around the bolts. LostValley Offroad's beadlocks have a centering ring built in. They are alot thicker than your standard beadlock is so they cuase soem balancing issues however, I had them do mine for me... was around $400 out the door to have them welded on my existing wheels and have my tires mounted with poweder coated rings.
I ran my rig out the interstate at 70-80mph on the way to many many wheeling trips with them, and I put almost 1500 on it in a single week in August with no isses or unusaul viberations. When I balanced them I put them on a spin balancer and static balanced them, then I broke the back bead down and put some bb's in each one to help keep the balance.
No matter what the DIY beadlock, there is no reason they should leack if the weld is sealed all the way around. but I always use lostvalleys becuase they weld them mount them, check them for leaks, demoutn them, reweld them and do it over and over until there are no leaks present.
