Now that is Pimp!!! lets see em white..

They look amazing guys, now I can use my Fj again

I assume the rock crusher bead can sit deeper with a bit of yanking and glueing?

the center 'dome' is a little hard edged where it transitions, would that be easy to change? apart from that they look spot on

congrats on getting them done quick!

-edit-
if its not to late to make minor changes I would do that:

The rock crusher beads are a little to wide for a non beadlock wheel. You can trim them down with a pair of scissors, and they drop right in

not to get too off topic, but I just gave my crushers a little trim and they fit better on the cyclones now. - it seems you haveto wriggle them a bit to seat them. Im just not used to them, having used rock hard tamiya rubber for the last few years...

I guess youre right... It doesnt make to much difference but it is my fault - my reference pic was off a van

If they can still make the changes, would it be fine having just 6 holes instead of the 5 but keep them looking the same? I think it would be to much work adding miniature nuts and if people really want they can drill them out and add mini bolts themselves.

They look great! I'll take some of the aluminum but I agree, a Wagon Wheel needs to be White!

look good but something doesn't look right to me. As chino says 6 bolts would be better. Also I think the hard edge on the centre dome is fine.

I need a set of these!!!!!!!!

Don't suppose you will be making push on nut covers for with these wheels?

Also, will we be able to order 5 of these wheels as opposed to only 4? I need one for a spare.

yeah.. is the tire bead gonna sit in closer? or is it gonna be short? it would make an excellent scale wheel for my scaler but i dont want to be fighting with it to get it on and on properly
