Have you looked at the Mopar/Hutchison beadlocks? One of the members of our local jeep club picked up a set for under $300ea from a dealer that supports the jeep community.

Might I suggest looking a the the KMC Machete wheels over the Spyderlocks. The KMC Machete wheels have drain holes in the rock ring that allows water to drain away.

I have the ATX Slabs and love them with the exception of how much water they accumulate when it rains. Spyderlocks are basically ATX Slabs with a different ring and with having the ginormous ring on the Spyderlocks you can get more debris stuck inside your wheel and if you bend one of the rings which can happen it will throw off your balance.

Last thing to consider is how much will it cost to replace the rings?

Again this is just my advice.
