Checking beadlock torque - dumb question

[Mdozier]

Ok, I’ve got beadlocks on the way and these will be my first beadlock wheels. Sorry for the newbie/dumb question but here goes:

when heading off road, is it adequate to do a quick pre-trip torque check with the tires mounted, aired and sitting on the ground? Other than finding one totally loose, can you count on the torque? Or, do you guys take the weight off the tire and deflate every time you check torque? I’m not talking about a regular maintenance check but more like double checking before an adventure.

Thanks in advance for any advice.
