Jeep Wrangler Wheel Thread

That looks pretty tough! It doesn't look very much like YOU though.

Might want to steer away from actual beadlocks. Not street legal in many areas.

Theres also more maintenance associated with them.... I wouldn't run beadlocks unless you really need them. I looked into using them but the cons outweighed the pros. (Really need to be running <10 psi often)

heres some walker Evans

same heep, with AEV Pinters I believe. they looked good but got really easily rock rash, AEV replaced 2 of them, in which he finally just swapped to the walkers

Not feeling that.

I tend to agree but I really, really like the look of it. I have no intentions of being a hard core rock crawler though.

I'm actually OK to run them around here but that is definitely a consideration.

I've done quite a bit of research on them. I agree there are more cons than pros. As far as the psi, the Racelines are fine up to 25psi which is close to what I would run on the street anyway. Valid points though.

I looked hard at the Pintlers. They are are nice looking wheel. Walker Evans has a nice design to them as well.


I don't know guys. I still like the Fuel Trophys (sorry Scott) but I keep getting drawn back to the Raceline Beadlocks for some reason. I'm probably scared to commit to a black/anthracite wheel.

I'm just throwing this one out there too (never thought I would have a vehicle where I would be looking at XDs). I actually forgot about it. This one has 37s though.

I can certainly feel your pain there. Some look great - but many look terrible.

I think that looks excellent - on a Jeep

heres some of those other ones you posted earlyier. theyre on a very odd looking jeep though

and here is how it looks when its not on the vehicle

Do you plan to wheel with this jeep or will it stay on the street?

My buddy said they are made well, and are strong, but when pushing the limits of a slightly modified JK with F&R lockers on 37s he needed something that can handle the abuse. So far the walkers have done their job, the lock ring has protected the wheel and taken all the hits, theyre scratched and pretty tore up but still function 100%, just dont look so pretty anymore
