funny you should post that truck up. yes those are xd diesels with fake bolt on beadlocks. i know because i actually went out and took a look at that truck in person. they had it at a import/custom dealer here in nashville after they had bought it in an aucton in fl. they looked great in my opinion with the bolt on beadlock. they were 22" on 37" trailgrapplers. dudes at the dealer were aholes that didnt know $hit. he was trying to tell me it had a 6 inch custom lift on it. i looked underneath and said to him i dont see any suspension lift of any sort. and he proceeds to say oh its right here and points to the bilstein shocks it had. hmmmm i didnt know bilsteins added 6 in to overall height and he tried to tell me the rims and tires cost 7k. ya f'ing right was my response...see ya dumba$$

anyways sorry for the rant i just saw that truck and had to tell my story!

Thanks again for the replys......so I take it that these are aftermarket rims that have to be altered to accept the bolt on beadlocks? I really like the setup, I just don't know of anyone in my area that would to the work to the rims.

i dont believe it would take much to put those beadlock rings on. should be able to do it yourself

OK.....I don't want to sound like a tard, but......I checked out the kmc wheels. Do they sell the "beadlock" circle seperate, or are those made by a different company? Also, do they bolt up to the kmc's without any mods?
Thanks again.

its all good. the beadlock rings do not come with the rims but kmc(maker of xd) also makes the beadlocks. i think they are meant to go with the diesels but they probably work with any xd rim.

Scott,

If you click on the KMC link I posted, about half way down you can add to your order the beadlocks.

Check it out...
