Nice custom idea for stock wheels

Look here, OMF Performance Products | Beadlocked Wheels scroll down the page to wheel 6 they make the standard Raptor wheels into simulated beadlocks. Looks pretty cool. They can also convert the stock wheels into real beadlocks.

I actually see a truck around here every so often, its a black screw with a camper shell and it has those wheels and a sdhq bumper. Has wyoming or montana plates i think but a badass truck.
I wonder if they are on the forums?

I just worked with OMF to get a set of centerline Switchbacks with OMF simulocks added on. Great people to deal with. Wheels should be here in a month.

looks terrible IMO

Nah i think if you powder coat the beadlocks it can look pretty good.

I agree, doesn't look good. And for the price why not get some real beadlocks?

Had real bead lock on a vehicle i used to own, real pain in the behind for an everyday driver. It was just a thought for the look without the pain. Also where did you find prices at?

I saw them a few months ago. It was pretty expensive, especially since its using your stock rims. It was about $200 each!

I had white OMF Sim-U-Locks with anthracite grey rock crawling domes put on my stock Raptor rims and then I just never ended up running them. You're looking at about 12 lbs of total unsprung wheel weight with that setup for no real benefit other than looks. I like the way they look, but it ended up being an unnecessary purchase for me.

The wheel pictured in #6 is actually one of mine... I dealt with Bones over at OMF and that was my wheel they used for that photograph before they put the solid grey rock crawling domes on.

....maybe I'll post mine in the Want To Sell section on here someday....
If anyone is interested in buying mine, feel free to shoot me a PM. They're sitting brand new in the boxes at my house, never mounted. The rings are removable, so they can be re-sprayed any color you want very easily.

I also don't like the looks and don't like the idea of adding unsprung weight for no good reason.
