Default Spyderlock Wheels

How many of my fellow JK owners have run Spyderlock wheels? I think they look sweet, and I am thinking of running them on my Jeep. Any input is welcome, both positive or negative. Also, pictures would be nice. I am 95% sure that I will be getting the Nitto Trail Grapplers in a 35x12.50R17. I would be looking to get the Spyderlocks in a black finish. Thank in advance.

I've always like the black on black look of these myself. Just not sure I wanna run bead locks though.

Let me first start by saying I have not run these wheels or any beadlocks for that matter. But, I have been researching beadlocks and to me it seems like the Hutchinson Rock Monsters are a better way to go. They are DOT approved, hold both beads, appear to be easy to install and are only $400 a wheel. Whereas the SpyderLocks are $360 a wheel plus $90 if you want the wheel powder coated and another $40 if you want the ring powder coated. For a grand total of $490 a wheel if you wanted a color. I don't know maybe i'm missing something but it seems like unless your buying based on looks or are getting machined SpyderLocks, that the Rock Monsters are a better way to go. Just my .02

I think the powdercoated beadlocks look great on the Falken rig. They would be nice to have, but wheels aren't something I want to dump tons of money into. For me, a nice set of Pro Comps will suffice.
