Help trying to track down some 17 8x170 beadlock wheels!!!!
I really dont want to go the DIY route, but its looking that way. I already own a set of 42x13.50x17 pitbull rockers (Wish they where 16.5 so I could get twf h1 beadslocks!) and I cant find a set of beadlock wheels that have the 8x170 bolt pattern (1ton super duty axle swap on my JK). You guys have any ideas?

Tons of options. You can get any ATX beadlock in 8x170, just has to be ordered (I run the Chamber Pro IIs in 8x170). Trail Ready, Raceline and KMC have it as a stock option. I'm sure there are others, but that's just off the top of my head.

The trail readys look sweet, do they make um wider then a 8.5? These tires are 13.50 wide so was thinking atlrast a 9 or 9.5.

I ended up ordering 5 of the trail ready hard rocks with the 4.75 BS. I figured with the extra 3 inches of width on the super duty axles the additional back spacing wold bring the stance closer to stock, and running 13.50 wide tires a 10 wheel would be a better choice. Shall see how it turns out.
