Default 1.9 Steel Beadlock Wheels

I’m looking for suggestions for some really good 1.9 steel beadlock wheels for a TRX4 Sport. Anyone have any suggestions? The reason I was planning to go steel is to pick up some additional weight down low. If you have some good suggestions for aluminum wheels I might consider those as well.

Thanks
Keith

I'm using SSD steel beadlocks on my TRX 4 sport. Love them! Easy to mount any Tire and inexpensive as well.

I agree with MaX-D. SSD makes the best steel wheels IMO.

SSD is a greet wheel for budget minded folks. I’ve used them on many of my rigs.

Boom Racing make some of the best looking steel wheels i've seen and the hubs are incredible. There new steel stamped wheel are also very cool and underrated. So is there BRX01 chassis

I find that SSD makes steel wheels that suite American style trucks and rock racers, and Boom Racing makes them that look just right for imports.

The Boom Racing Narrow 21mm Badass Classic 16-Hole Steelie & CNC Aluminum Beadlock Wheels that I got are incredibly detailed and come with a tool and threaded center hubs, even going so far as to differentiate from front to rear sets.

I have a couple sets of SSD steelies as well, spokers and 5-slots - great wheels.

I just bought my 3rd set of SSD wheels today. I have Aluminum Prospects on my TRX4. LOVE THEM. I have a set of 1.55 Steel and as of today a set of 1.9 Steel 8 hole Chrome for my Element Trailwalker. I'm really happy with their stuff. Having the two sizes for the Element is nice depending on where I am driving.

First time using Beadlocks. I went w/ the Gmade steel wheels on Canyon trails...SR02 1.9" Steel beadlock wheels (Matt black) - GMADE


No problem installing tires or wheels.

While I love these wheels in the looks department I cant stand the weight of these. They are hands down the heaviest set of wheels I have, I forget the weight but it was shocking all mounted up . They also have an built in hub with no way of adjusting and an offset that seems to rub on almost every rig I have.



1 More vote for SSD wheels though i'll just add that aluminum is plenty strong and in some cases may be close to as heavy if not heavier since they are thicker. not that I would recommend going for heavy wheels (add heavy knuckles instead)
