Mopar True Beadlock 17" Wheels (82214348AB)

These look hot - anyone have any experience with them?

They ain't cheap but . . . hot damn they're sexy. Would love to know what they weigh per wheel if anyone has the info.

I'd be happy if they were non-beadlock. I love the look but I don't want to mess with beadlocks on a daily. Been there done that.

Sounds like the voice of experience - can you please elaborate on why BLs suck for daily use?

I haven't used BLs before but they sound attractive to me.

Got my order into my dealer for a set now LOL.

They just need more maintenance than a regular wheel. Constant pressure checking, torquing, and checking in general. More work than I'm willing to do again for a daily driven vehicle. I had them on a Jeep XJ before and I literally bought another vehicle to drive every day because they were the biggest headache IMO.

There's a lot of benefits off road and in the trails and stuff, but for an every day vehicle no way I'd do it again.

Just my opinion though, so take that for what it's worth.

They are sick ass wheels though. Non-beadlock and I'd probably snatch them up in a heart beat.

FYI if anyone plans on ordering this rim, it comes with fake bead locks from the factory and you can buy the actual bead lock rings separate

 

[CuylerTech]

They are beadlock "capable" ie. you can install a bead lock on them if you want, but they dont come as actual bead locks.

Good too know - thanks!

Ugh - that's no bueno. Why don't they come with the "real" bead lock rings?

Think I'll hold off on these based on the info y'all have shared.

Many thanks to you both!

Because it's a pain in the ass to run bead locks on the street. So they give you the option to back and forth between them.

Totally understood but for that kind of money at least you should get the "street rings" and the "true beadlock rings" with the wheel.

It was $15/ring.

Haha yup...I use to look forward to deployments!

My fam thought I was crazy.

These are actually really well designed wheels. They have a dual mount design for on or off road due to legal restrictions for beadlock wheels.

Heres a pic from the installation paperwork from MOPAR
