WOW

Well so much for keeping it light. lol

Thank you Marcus. Almost as much as real beadlocks. I'll have to give this more thought.
30# is actually pretty light. Beadlocks are all close to 40-50# each!

Yeah, not really a light wheel. Per a phone call to Method, they weigh 30.4 lbs. Mine arrive today and UPS shows they are 30.0 lbs, even. All 5 boxes state the same weight, which is suspect. I'll weight them tonight or tomorrow and report back.
Shipping weights are often approximate. They create 5 labels at one time and make them all "" x "" x "" dimension and 30# each. I'd be interested in seeing what they weigh on the scale.

LOL. Don't worry. I will post pics....AND specs and try to answer all the questions that pop up all over this forum.
Questions on lugs, camera function, tail gate/mounting issues, wheel specs, tire specs, lift, and shots of how much poke, etc.
It will be a while, though, because I'm waiting on the 2-door Mopar lift and debating between 37" & 315/70 KO2s

Sorry ya'll! I just put the 5 on 5 wheels up on the site for you. The JLWF coupon will give you the deal and free shipping. Please let me check stock before you place an order. You can PM me or call me and I'll double check before you place the order.

The wheels came in today. Great service and pretty quick shipping from Marcus at @River City Offroad
I opened the most beat up box to weigh it by balancing it on my kinda-heigh-end body scale with a couple of fingers. It weighed in at 30.7 lbs. The finish had a chip in it, just inside where the hub ring will fit, no big deal. Pic posted of chip and pics of the bead grip. The pic were taken indoors under yellow / warm overhead lighting, if anyone is anal about the finish of the wheels and photography.
