GEN 2 2017 Beadlock wheels

Great! I got confirmation that the cast wheels are 33 lbs. so.. the forged are not lighter.

Anyway to tell if these are knock offs or real Oem?

Do you have some reason to think they are knock off's?

Don't think they would go through all the trouble of making them accept the true beadlock ring if they were knock offs.

But that's just my 2¢

Well, I know there are sellers on eBay selling knock off OEM wheels for other cars. They are usually a lot cheaper and look exactly like the factory wheels. I was looking for a set for my CTS-V and found a few "factory style" wheels cheap. Since these wheels are new, Just curious how Detroit Wheels got them... do you see any GM stickers or part numbers?

The wheels on your V were not made by GM. They are sourced through a wheel manufacturer and sold to GM. That said, no, there are no Ford part numbers of stickers on the wheel.

What year is your V? Sold mine about a year ago,

foMoCo is stamped on the inside of the ring. I would guess that's Ford Motor Company. They could me knock offs but I'm not thinking so.

My CTSV is 2012. I was under the impression that nearly all OEM wheels are contracted out and not made in house. If its not a knock off, $1700 for a set still doesn't seem bad to me.

They now are priced at $1959.00. That's quite a jump up from $1349.00 he had them for yesterday. I'm passing on them at this new price.

I just bought the OEM Beadlocks from Detroit Wheels, the ebay guy. 2k upfront, they ship wheels, I ship stock wheels back, they credit me $650. So $1350 total. Not a bad deal. Super professional and arrived at my house in less than 2 weeks.

I can do $700 for all 5 stock rims if your interested. Mike

That is possible. I will shoot you a PM when I get the truck and wheels switched out. What location are you in?

maybe i missed something, do the rings come with the stock beadlocks if you order them with the truck?
