I just ordered the same ones directly. I only wanted two and the price was slightly better.
Let us know if it works! I am wondering what the actual hole size is on my wheels--the hangar has an OD of 5/8 or 0.63-inch, so I'm wondering if it might be too big to fit.

The ones with the knarling are a no go..
After opening that link I likes the 3rd ine done that was smooth. The knarling would basically grind away at the holes when they are placed over.
The ones I ordered are tapered and smooth. Good call. I had to go look after you posted this.

Will do. I’ll be trying them with teraflex nomad split spoke wheels.

The holes in the rims are bigger than the spindle studs if the hanger part is thin I think it will slide on them. The lugnut actually takes up the slack divided between the 5 points of tightening.

That’s my thought as well. I’m excited to try them. It should reduce the amount of lifting to line up with lugs.

I added a couple rollers to an ATV/Motorcycle lift that I had sitting around . . . Comes in handy!

Mine showed up today as well. I haven’t tried them yet. But they look well made.

Thanks! By the way, if anyone is trying to find rollers, google "Conveyor Rollers" That's how I found these, but it was years ago and I can't find the order.

My spares are lower in tread with the new tires. My old rims and tires are my spare's They dont enter rotation. They literally are only there to get me time to patch it up plug the tire etc..

Timing out a spare is just like the spare that came with the jeep.
Sucker was up under there long enough the rim was rusting out. Waste of time to have a spare UNDER a vehicle. I HATED that with a SEETHING passion. Rubbed on this on that dragged on mud grass . This spring I took it out and removed the crank and took out that shield thing and got rid of that worthless crap.
Tell us how you really feel🤣
