    Looking for a set of beadlock wheels. Want to know if anyone can share their experiences for those who have a set.

    I’ve looked at Walker Evans, kmc and method so far.

    Depends on what feature you want. Do you want steel inserts for the bolts to thread into or aluminum? Do you want dot legal? Steel outer ring? Cast or Billet wheel?

    The 2nd gen is running a pair of diy beadlocks that I build and the aluminum ones are going on my mini truck I'm building

    All good questions. Steel inserts, if going aluminum wheels for sure. Are aluminum outer rings have any benefit over steel?

    Lastly, are those xd222?

    They look bad ass! How do you like them? And what are your wheel specs?

    Hutchinson is a dot legal beadlock (only one that I know of) and as far as maintenance they are on the lower end
    The aluminum ones are the kmc Enduro and my steel ones are welded together.
    I believe raceline have steel. Inserts for the thread and they offer steel or aluminum outer rings. The steel holds up to the abuse a little better than the aluminum outers but they can always be replaced so it's really what you think looks better
