Definitely expensive for wheel locks but so are those XR wheels and tires. Do they come in black? They seem like they work. Another option is the full locking set of Gorilla locks. They seem to have gone up in price also. I think the full set of Gorillas cost close the same cost as the Advanced wheel locks, plus or minus a few bucks. The issue with the Gorilla locks is you have to be very careful installing them or the finish can nick and they will rust after a 1-2 years.
I think the Mopar locks are by far the best bang for the buck for a effective wheel lock. My new first choice if they sit deep enough. The only issue is how they fit and look in some different wheel designs. They look good on your wheels. They are set in deep enough. I have seen the Mopar locks on some other wheels where they stick out too far. I also wish there was a black Mopar wheel lock option. Maybe a black finish does not hold up as well and will rust? I guess durability maybe the trade off?Dunno if they’ll really do much but this thread made me go find the best deal on Mopar OEM wheel locks lol. They fit pretty nice!
Got rid on mine but all Canadian jeeps come with them (I think. Mine did anyway) and the locking lug stuck out easily 1/2" if not 3/4". Mine were the non spinning ones.
Yeah they also come in black
Looks like a standard Rubicon (not a 392). What color are the internal part of the Wheel. I am hearing bronze, black, grey... Also does the beadlock ring have a curve cut out for the tire stem? The online ones (silver) do not. ANd how many bolts for beadlock?My spare tire and wheel was stolen from my Jeep, had it less than a week. Called Jeep, who connected me with dealership who couldn’t find any part #’s and was told by “Chrysler” this isn’t available until at least December but no eta.
So I spent $70k and can’t get a replacement wheel for at least a month or two? That’s ridiculous.
I ordered the Mopar bead lock wheel which looks in pictures and specs to be the same wheel but with a silver ring instead of black……. Having a spare is a safety issue so I guess I have to take matters into my own hands again. Not impressed with the customer service after the last 4 vehicles I’ve purchased (2 Ram trucks and 2 Jeep’s).
I may look at Ford trucks next and maybe the Bronco. I feel like Jeep has lost its way
Grey inside wheel, black ring has cut outs for valve stem. 25 bolts for the ring, same as Mopar bead locks but a different wheel. Mopar beadlock wheel with silver rings are made in China and black wheel. XR beadlock wheels are grey inside, made in Mexico. I wish Jeep would get their shit together and offer this wheel so I can get a replacement
It is not your fault someone stole your wheels. Look at the XR club thread, and you will see I reported someone selling XR wheels that were obviously stolen...eBay, to their credit, removed them promptly and the bid was up to $2,550 plus $349 shipping...We need to fight the theft...on another note, I have Gorilla wheel locks. Any good or bad feedback for me trying to protect my wife's XR?To be clear I’m not blaming anyone but the thief and myself for not parking in the garage! I’m just saying I’m disappointed in Jeep for not making an effort - if they would have told me “we can only get you the wheel with a silver ring, will that work?”, I would have been happier. I had to research and figure out and order on my own instead. That’s just poor customer service in my opinion. If you work for Jeep, you should know your Jeep stuff better than your customer!
I’ve never owned a Ford and my last 4 vehicles have been FCA, might be time to try someone else and see if the customer experience is a little better
I only bought this Jeep because I traded in a ‘21 JLUR Ecodiesel that was giving me problem after problem. I really like the JL and ride quality and capability but having two TJs with very few issues shows how much better they were in the past.
