WOW!! I was just about to call BS on all of this pricing.....

I was under the impression that the beadlock wheels were only $700 each from Ford direct. That was when I checked a couple months ago.

Go to fordparts.com - The OEM beadlock wheels, including the decorative SVT ring and bolts, base part # 1007G retail for $1,763.92 EACH!!! wow

The stock decorative ring that says SVT on it is also available seperate. Base part # 1007J for a whopping $744.05 EACH.

I feel sorry for anybodys car insurance if they have to replace one (or more) of these due to an accident. lol

That $1165 for a set of 4 just keeps getting cheaper and cheaper.

That is correct = retail. Of coarse, you could shop them and probably get a set for $450 or so.

Wow! I guess if someone is leaning towards getting them, they should! You could always sell them later and make a profit. I guess you could even damage one or two and still get your money back and go back to "regular" rims.

I ordered them on mine, still waiting to be pulled, but now I might take them off after the 800 mile trip home and sell them. I wonder what they would go for with almost new tires, any ideas?

Think about this---most of the time they do not balance very well i.e. take a lot of weight so the on road manners will not be that great. They may look cool but for 98% of the Raptor drivers out there they will look like “posers” as we like to say in the bike vernacular..

Has anyone taking delivery of beadlocks yet?

I spoke to my dealership and they told me Ford keeps pushing back the availability of beadlocks and if you have that option, your order will not get pulled anytime soon.

I can speak from experience - I installed and balanced mine myself. No worse than any other wheel that requires "stick on" wheel weights. Maybe 3 oz per wheel max. Ride like a dream at 85+. Zero vibration.

I love the look more and more every time I see them. Cant wait to see them on other colors! Esp red and black.

I thought they released them about a month ago.....

My sales guy told me my Terrain Raptor with BL wheels is built and waiting for delivery. He said it is scheduled to get in the 26th.
