Custom wheels
 
I'm looking for someone to custom machine me a set of beadlocks, and I was wondering if anyone here can do that, or if any of you guys know of a place that will. I know it will be costly.

Do you want just the beadlocks or the wheel to?

I need the entire wheel. With the beadlock rings.

Here's a pic of what I need replicated. They don't have to be beadlocks, they can just be a regular wheel, with the ring glued on.

Just the wheel,

Yeah you're right that would be a fairly expensive wheel to make. My shop charges 130/hr, which we are a short run prototype shop which is what you would be looking for. I can tell you that you would probably be looking around 350ish for a set on the cheap side with reverse engineering the wheel, and machine time. So I'm not sure if there is a place that makes that wheel in a production type setting in which they could sell them much cheaper to you. Just something to consider.
