I do - MR105 and 37’s for my DD

They're just like any other rim - I have re torqued rings but they're never loose.

I had some issues when mounting with stripped out threads and had to use inserts but it doesn't appear to be a common problem. Think I was just the lucky one...

Here's the best pic of the rims

I just had several bolts break off on my 6 week old set. Scary.

I torqued them to spec, a while back, and just walked by it this weekend and thought it looked off. The ring on mine had marks from the bolt threads towards the center of the wheel on every hole.

I am less than pleased. Lucky I didn't lose the ring entirely.

Damn I'm glad I never bought those .... I went with Trail Ready's probably more expensive(not that it means anything) but I hope I don't have the same problems once on the jeep this March.
