Was behind this JL in Denver yesterday - and love the wheels. Thinking these are what I'll go with for my 21' Rubi I've ordered. Didn't see any markings or branding. Anybody know what they might be/are? I see some similar TR/Method wheels - but nothing that's a match.

Sorry for the bad photo quality - focus seemed to have been on my dash vs. the intended subject of the photo.

Thank you!

Are you sure they are a real bead lock wheel. There are a lot of fake bead lock look a like wheels out there.

Those definitely look like simulated beadlocks. The ring is too narrow and the bolts are very small.

Appreciate the replies @Cavs42 and @wibornz . After looking at these more closely, you're right - not beadlocks. I'll continue my search!

Those are tough! I love em'. Have had a few sets of KMC wheels without and issue. I din't see these when perusing their site. I'll have to take another look. Thank you! What tire set-up are you going for? Are you doing any suspension work simultaneously? Can't wait to see pics on your rig.

I'm likely going with 35" Mickey Thompson M/Ts or 35" BFG KO2 A/Ts(haven't fully decided yet), as well as the Mopar 2.5" lift right out of the gate. I can't wait to see it either!

These wheels are brand new to the line-up, and were just released in December. They come in black, anthracite, bronze and red! Mine will be a -15 backspacing, so some poke, but not crazy.

Can't wait to see em'. I'm doing Snazberry (dumbest name ever) over saddle. Body color fender flairs - so I think the bronze would be the way I'd go. Let me know what you think of those tires. I had MT 37's on my F250 - and Nitto T/G 35's on my JK. Never really drove either enough to get a feel on/off road to make a definitive impression one way or another.

I went Sarge Green with Black roof, grille and flares. I ordered her in October, and hopefully she'll be built this month. She's an auto, so good news for me!

The all black & Sarge Green will be a killer look. Insane the inconsistency in build date from order date. I wonder if it's completely dependent on exterior color and engine combo that dictates the build?

For me it's international vs domestic. All Canadian orders are taking this long right now.

Very odd. I don’t think there’s anything different in the spec; Canadian vs. US. Regardless; it’ll be worth the wait. What else do we have to do these days , anyway?
