if you were so disappointed by something that is purely cosmetic, you're in for a world of disappointment to come with J**p!
fact is, what you've got on your beadlock-capable wheels is only there to protect the holes for the real beadlock rings. not having the extra 15 bolts per wheel actually reduces rotating weight and unsprung weight, so technically, you're ahead.
fact remains, though; stuff changes all the time in Automotive, and there's no guarantee they're going to build anything exactly the way you ordered it.
you always had the option of not accepting it if it wasn't what you were willing to pay for.

This is my first time buying a Jeep and I want to express my disappointment. I ordered a 2023 Jeep Rubicon Xtreme Recon and expected to receive the advertised wheels (25 bolts) instead I received wheels with 10 bolts. I feel that JEEP misrepresented their product. Also, there was no communication that this was a change for 2023. I contacted my dealer and expressed my frustration, and they pretty much told me there was nothing they could do. Every time you pull up a picture of the Jeep Xtreme Recon it has pictures of the wheels with the 25 bolts. If you build the 2023 on your website, it still shows the simulated beadlock with the 25 bolts. I wish to receive the appropriate wheel. That's what I paid for.
