buy what you want but if i were u i would go with some 20 inch wheels. u can still run 40's and the tires will be cheaper. unless ur doing it just for looks ....in that case i wouldnt bother, i dont think ppl at the mall even know what a bead lock is.

Look if you don't agree with my customizations feel free to move on to the next thread, I just think it's ridiculous that some of you guys actually felt the need to comment on something that you didn't agree with (something that happens way to often on this forum). My Jeep, my money thus I can do whatever the heck I want to it; the world needs less haters that's for sure.

Thanks to those who are actually mature and positive and provided me with some info, stay classy

I've never seen beadlocks that large either I'm sure the could be custom made but for a huge price. And honestly how large of a tire are you going to run on them?

OMF Performance is the first result. They offer simulated 22-inch beadlocks, not true bead locks... if your'e going for looks, there you go, if you're going for function, you may be out of luck.

I like the wheels they have at OMF even if they're not true beadlocks, most likely will go with one of those.

I'm currently experimenting with an alternative setup to my Jeep and am thinking of moving toward a 35" or 37" wheel with a 22" beadlock look.

As for the "chill pill" comment... been dealing with these backwoods redneck so-called true Jeepers since I first joined this forum so IMO the backlash was way over due. Most of the stuff that other people do with their Jeeps (or more so their time and money) I don't agree with but have never commented negatively on it, "hey to each his own;"

Oh and not a day goes that a stranger tells me how nice my ride is, I must be doing something right in picking the right mods.
