Default Walker Evans Beadlocks with WIDE RINGS...

I was checking out the Walker Evans web site and i noticed that you can get the beadlocks with wide rings. Does anyone have these? Any pics? Thoughts?

The wide rings look very much like the rings that come on the sypderlocks. Pluses would be more protection of the entire rim, minuses are getting things like rocks, mud, misc debris stuck in the ring which then can be a challenge to remove. They look tough though.
