Depends on your budget. I've been more than satisfied with mine from champion:

Allied or Walker Evans

I have a set of Trail Ready s158 , I think is the model that I had for the EB ,but that build got canceled .. need to sale em' .

I run a set of MRW on my trail rig now , no problems so far ..

what's your budget ?

I have allied beadlocks and like them alot.

All of the above are good ones...

I have MRW and they are good. plus inexpensive compared to most. I wouldnt worry about the bling if you going to wheel !! my outer rings are beat after 1 yr.

I bought a set of Do It Yourselfers and they work flawlessly. Paid 200.00 for the set, welded them on myself and purchased grade 5 hardware for them at a minimal cost. For about 225.00 and some manual labor, pretty cheap and look good too.;D

I had a set of 17" Allied Rock-A-Thons on my last Bronco I loved them but they're heavy. Those wheels with 37" BFG muds made for a very heavy package. Changing a tire by my self was a chore. All that being said, I will probably buy another set for my current Bronco.

Yeah I went with the self weld kind from Rockstomper. I did spend a little more for the extra wide 'mud ring' and to have the bolts counter sunk, but so far this tire has been made up for a month and only droped 2 psi.

If welding an 'air tight' weld seems daunting its not too bad. I just tacked all the way around about every 2 inchs and then skipping every other gap I seam welded the two until done. Once cooled and cleaned up I used a bit of diesel fuel on the inside of the rim behind the weld and rolled the rim to check for leaks. If any are found I just welded them up (lucky none where found= confindence builder)

Good catch... MRW will take a beating and keep on tickin..

What is the size of your sale beadlocks? Also price. I might be interested...

Running 15" Rockatons without any problems. I found a used set for $200, so it was a good deal. Outer ring is scratched, but who cares....

I was looking at the 17 X 8.5 WA-0566. They are expensive though which is one reason I am not completely thrilled about them.

ive had two sets of Allied rock a thons and they are good wheels. if i had to do it over again, i would probably go with MRW simply because from what ive seen they have thicker rings. the rings on the allieds are fairly thin, but get the job done.

Here is a link to what i am running. Quality wheels! But expensive....

All my friends run the staun's and they say there the best. At only like 170 tire it's not bad, and their legal on the street. You can pretty much air down to like 1 p.s.i. and not have any problems except for the tire folding over your rim and crushing it, and that is easily solved by a set of rock rings. It is also a double beadlock I think.

 

[HoosierDaddy]

Recentered hummer rims ?
Thats what I have been looking into here lately.
If you do it yourself , you can have double bead locks ,rock rings , custom offset and bolt pattern for about $700 or so.
Of course you need a 16.5" tire , which I already have.

Inner Airlock=Staun for $450 for 4 of em.
