Great points. I will give them a look. I think in these trying times the more local you can get the better.

Spoke to my local shop and he was all about getting the cheapest wheel you can. Mainly that if you use them then the abuse is unavoidable. So might as make it more disposable. Sounds like yours have been scuffed pretty good. I guess you can just repaint it too!
Yeah that is definitely one way to look at it. When I started my JT build I wanted to make sure I got good wheels that would last and take some serious abuse. One nice thing about beadlocks is you can just buy a new ring if one gets messed up bad. The beauty of Jeeps is that you can build them a million ways and make it fit your needs and wants.

BTW your VW is awesome!

Good point on the Jeeps... they're like Legos when it comes to building.

The VW (the Doka) is actually one of my best friend's rigs. We've got a blend of new/old school going when we hit the trails. It's a lot of fun!
