4 because the fifth one is easy to steal and its TOO much bling

Re: Beadlocks?
Kinda what I was thinking, plus it's an easy way to save $200 ($60 black steel vs. $260 beadlock).

Re: Beadlocks?
5 only if they were all 'new' and were to be rotated, but I agree with 4

Well it is a done deal. Ordered 4 of these tonight:

I got them in 15x8, 5x4.5 bolt pattern and 3.5" backspacing.

Also this week I trimmed my flares to fit the 36" tires. Trimmed 1.5" off the front TJ flares and 2" off the rear Rubicon flares. They came out so good that when I had Robin come out to the garage to check out the Jeep she said "What's different?". She couldn't tell they were trimmed...

Awesome! Now we just have a few more rigs that need to switch to swampers so we can run these muddy PNW trails without winching all day.

Re: Beadlocks?
Well I got an email this morning that my order was canceled due to that size being on permanent back-order.
Back to the drawing board, not sure what I'm going to get now...

Re: Beadlocks?
OMF is a welded on conversion of an AE rim. May end up going that route, but I'd probably just go trailready in that case since they are local. Trailready conversion rims run around $275.
What are your rims Jon?
