    OMF is a nice option but its simply a conversion and ends up being way more expensive per wheel after its all said and done. You can add an OMF ring to most production beadlocks

    If you know a welder get them to tig the rings on. But yeah, if you have to buy wheels, rings, etc., definitely expensive. I'm going to be in the market soon when I put on 35s. Considering adding rings to my XD rims, or forking out 1.6k for new ones.

    Omfs are awesome. Like 110 each ring. Then 100 each wheel for their beadlock conversation. And 30 a wheel for the gnar rock domes. I got 5 Rings and domes for 350 shipped cause they were "used" but showed up with brand new powdercoating. Would have been 800+ if I didn't get the deal I did. Definitely worth it. Super happy with them

    Yeah Jack, I'm considering those rings too. So $800, then did you tig them?

    No problem, only thing I added to it after that pic was tabs for the hood prop shocks and some for the wiring harness on the driver side.

    If you look closely you can see I welded a plate to cap the core support I cut off at the fire wall. I welded my tube to that with a gusset under it. At the front I welded it to the core support the added the large gusset because I overbuild
