Like the Walker Evans beadlocks. When I bought mine there were only a few mfrs. offering wheels (early 2007). I've got fakes (Mickey Thompson Classic Lock) on my TJ and I regretted spending the money after I did it. Fakes make look good but don't do any good when you go offroad.

Rolling on the Hutchinsons, no regrets at all!

I don't think that you can go wrong with a good set of purpose-built beadlocks. Spiderlocks, Walker Evans, Hutchinson, AEV...a few folks seem to have have had minor hiccups, but they all seem to get resolved.

I gotta say....those Rock Monsters are some very seksi wheels

And why does it not surprise me that the guy with the Hutchinsons is also rolling on Toyos

These are mine and they kick a$$. Gotta say they are wicked heavy, 130# each... and pricey.



Well worth every penny when you consider the alternative.

Couldn't agree more CT, and love your Jeep, man!

This is my first set of Toyos, but one thing's for sure, it won't be my last!

Does no one use Stuan internal beadlocks? From the design I would have thought it's a no brainer that they are the best way to go. Any feedback?
