I figured this should go in the chit-chat section.
I'm designing some beadlocks for my YJ and wanted your opinion.
They are going on 16 inch wheels, eight lug pattern.
And yes Greg said it was OK:p
Let me know what you think!?
Anything ,maybe you would change?
Comments?

sorry, I was enjoying a tasty turkey and pepperjack sandwich.

I think they're ok, but..

1. the 'rocky mountain' will be a wee bit fragile bashing against rocks
2. what's going on with the mountains?? painted on the rim center?
3. how much is all that cutting gonna cost?

other than that I like them. ;)

See that's what I'm thinking too. They won't stick up much anyway.
IT's gonna be laser cut. The mountains are gonna be on the inner ring.
Edit: It's gonna cost about 65 bones per wheel. Excluding hardware.

I think the mountains will cause balancing issues.... but if you need beadlocks youre probably not worried about that. I would go for less form and more function.. but thats just me.

Now that's something I didn't think about.
Thanks for the comment.

Is the RME a cut out? or an engraving? Yeah balance could be a technical issue.
It's gonna be a cut out.
I know that it's better for function the style, but I just want something different, and knowing that I designed it too.
Is there anyone out there on RME that has custom made beadlocks?
