If you really want the beadlocks to hold the tire on why not go with the Staun internals? They even have the advantage of holding both inner and outer beads on and can function as a run-flat. But if you just want the look of a beadlock I have no recomendation.

Another thing about the Hutchinsons for 2008/9 Jeeps is that they aren't really compatible with the tire pressure sensors, which may cause inspection failures in some states.

I have heard Hutchinson was going to come out with an adapter or mount or something that would allow you to use the TPMS module. Mounting the module to the rubber beadlock insert certainly wouldn't be much of an engineering challenge. But I'm certainly not going to break down my wheels for that.
