Default 26mm Beadlocks?

I have an HPI Sprint 2 Flux and wanted to get some beadlocks for my RC. I know beadlocks are for rock crawlers and off road RC's but I realy hate having to glue tires on my rims. If anyone knows where to get beadlocks for on road RC's please let me know. Thanks for your help in advance.

The RC I have uses 26mm Tires.

beadlock are heavier and more expensive..that's why it is not preferred for speed.. that's why they are good for rock crawlers.

Thanks for the advice but I still would rather run beadlocks than deal with glue. They do make plastic beadlocks for crawlers and use aluminum locking rings so I doubt weight would be an issue......Still looking for 26mm beadlocks. Thanks.
