I really like the look of the Fuel Trophy wheels and I am thinking of buying them. I wondered if anybody had tried the real beadlock rims yet. I am liking the idea of having beadlocks for off road use. I have to travel quite a bit to get to anywhere to really off road and would therefore need to run these on road also. I have researched the whole beadlocks are for off road only thing. My only major concern was wondering if these will be too difficult to balance for on road use. I have found a lot of discussion about some beadlocks being impossible to balance. I could just go with Ford's beadlocks but, I like the look of these a bit better. Any thoughts are appreciated.

Glad to hear that. And yes I remember seeing your "big ass tires" lol. Still very impressed by your setup. I am thinking about running them all the time. Doesn't seem very practical to swap out a full set of tires to go off road then swap them back. Especially when I will be driving 900 miles or so to get to some of these off road adventures.
