Well after last trip out my beadlock rings got pretty tore up. I had expected this to be the case (and that's why I had originally order the polished aluminum rings). Well I've been running the black rings for a little while and they've grown on me. But I really hate having to touch them up after every wheeling trip. Just wondering if someone can photoshop the polished rings onto my rig so I can get an idea of how much it would change the look. I'm also interested to see what the OMF ring would look like if it's possible. Any help would be appreciated.

The rings

Here's the silver rings, I'm not able to get the OMF wheels to look right because of the angle.

...your anodizing is chipping or are they painted? if you like yours and they are painted strip them and take them to get anodized ..

Are your rings steel or aluminum?
Either way, you can pull them off and strip the finish and paint, powdercoat or anodize them silver. You could clearcoat them so rock rash touchup will be easy.

The black rings look good, but if your going to wheel your rig stick with the bare or polished rings. My rings are are trashed, but they still look good from a few feet away. If they were colored that would be a whole different story.

Thanks man I really appreciate it. Gives me a better idea of what the polished rings would look like.


They are PC'd. Don't really care about changing the overall look of the wheel that much just wanted to have a better visual of what it's probably going to end up looking like with the polished aluminum. Biggest thing is regardless of what I do to these steel rings they are going to get torn up and require touchup after every wheeling trip. Not a big deal in regards to functionality but a huge pain to keep looking nice.


Yeah I know what you mean. I had hopes I could keep them clean but it's clear after the first trip out it's not going to happen. I was extra careful to keep them off the rocks and even then they all looked like this.



And touch up for each wasn't all that bad. Just more time consuming than anything.
