Yeah it's tough, you could always mount the beadlocks yourself and then just take somewhere to get balanced... It's not hard to mount up tires onto bead locks it's the balancing that you need a machine for... Or a buddy who works at a dealership lol

Yeah that was an option I'm going over as well, then I need to figure out the tmps thing, may be just as simple as throwing some new sensors on.

Yep you can get all sorts of tpms set ups in believe Americas tire has a set, some of our vendors on here sell them I believe and you can always re use oem sensors... If you go the route of having another set of oem sensors remember the ecu can only detect one set at a time... So my advice if your swapping back and forth between normal rims and the beadlocks for just off road excursions I would go with an aftermarket tpms kit that has its own monitoring system...

Oh, Thanks to TMX for the 105's and lugs, for having them in stock, and for hooking it up when some of the bolts fell out during shipping.

Browsed the vendors for tires and a decent price, ended up getting my best deal on tire rack, and as usual they were helpful.

Did you end up mounting the beadlocks yourself and then go balance them?! Looking good... Those tires are also very interesting since I haven't seen anyone else with that combo... Looks amazing keep this beast goin!

Yeah, mounted everything up myself in my garage, got some new tpms sensors from ford and a spray bottle with soapy water and a bucket and a tire iron and went to work, had a little trouble at first keeping the bead far enough down the lip to get the rings on, found out that that area couldn't be soapy or it'd just slip off, when dry it holds. I was originally going to go with the KM2's but the back order just didn't agree with my impatience, the only truck i've seen these on is ROSCO's.
