    Does anyone know what wheels these are? Are they painted orange or bought that way? I'd like to get them, though not in that size.

    ^^this. the beadlock rim is for a purpose and not for looks. a true beadlock will cost a shit ton. you can get fake beadlocks for the look and some of the purpose.

    Sure, I'm just wondering if there's some company producing wheels that color.

    I dont know how it is in Nebraska, but the legit beadlocks are illegal to run in PA so you might wanna check that out too.

    Engage Offroad long travel front and rear with some fat tires.
    the Mickey Thompsons are simulated lock rings, so DOT approved as they aren't real...

    strictly cosmetics...

    as for the orange, you will likely have to buy the rings polished, then send them out to get blasted and painted...

    at $185 per wheel, plus the custom paint on the rings, that's a big chunk of change on some wheels just for the look...

    it seems the OMF are simulated rings too, so should be good to go...

    From what I know they are Illegal but the local pd wouldn't know a true bead lock from a fake.

    Just an FYI those simulated beadlock wheels are a bitch to clean. Dirt, mud, grime, etc gets gummed up behind that lip.

    It looks like OMF has what I was looking for, so thanks! Pretty dang expensive though just for the look, as mentioned. Something to do way down the line maybe.
