Just curious if there are any wheels out that have removable rings?

I would like to powdercoat them and also have a spare set that I could use on the trail (rock rash)

Rugged Ridge have what you're looking for - the 15301 series wheels.
The rims come in a few finishes, including black, and there are accessory rim protector rings.

I wouldn't want to deal with 56 bolts to get the 4 rings on, than another 56 bolts to get off...

112 bolts per each offroading...

Thanls for the info....

Honestly I'm not a fan of the RR rims but I do like them with the trim ring.

kind of pricey when you combine the wheel and rings for a cast heavy wheel....hmmm

So does anyone make beadlock rings that you can slap on with out welding them on or drilling them on? Something you can pop on like a hub cap?
