Granite Alloy GV8 black / anthracite faux beadlocks

Stang · Sep 15, 2014

I was just about to pull the trigger on some Method Fat 5's with Goodyear Duratracs then I saw these Granite Alloy wheels pop up. Thoughts? I like how the anthracite lip would tie in with the fenders. Methods are Raptor proven and I've never heard of Granite Alloy. Looks like the Jeep guys are running them.

Thoughts????

As far as looks I like them. Never heard of them

They are good looking wheels

They're private label Ultra wheels. So quality isn't an issue. I like the blk/grey combo.

Hmmm, now that I know they're Ultra the decision is getting harder. Could probably fab up some SVT center caps utilizing the stockers one way or another. I also like the closer to stock offset (25mm vs. 34mm). Although they're 1/2 an inch wider wheel the tires will only move out a little less than half an inch vs. 1.3 for the Methods.

I hear ya! I ended up pulling the trigger on these. The more I looked at them the more I liked them. Looks like tire rack is out of stock so won't get them until the 1st week of October.

My current 2011 stock wheels with 10/32" BFGs will be up for sale if anyone is interested. Wheels are in good shape.

No question the gray ones over the fatty's. No brainer!

They showed up today. Loving the look.

What's the story on the bolts around the dress ring? Are they really bolts, machined into it or plastic pieces?
