ive got 15's right now so i would have to buy rims if i did the kit. So i just figured why not by actual bead lock wheels.

Or is this the wrong way to think about it?

Im a noob:redneck:

About $1300 for the cheapest 17"TR. and the are a steal rim. $1200 for 17" TG and they are a alum. rim. Had both and both are good.
If you are running leaf springs you with need 2-2 1/2" back spacing and I think you can only get that with steal wheels. TG has the smallest back spacing on a alum. wheel I found and its 3 3/4" Any more than 2" B.S. your tires will rub your springs.

How much?:corn:

Are there any real disadvantages to weld on kits?

Good to know:awesomework:

Im liking the info im getting so far

Sure, buy 'em, but you gotta pay to play. Figure anwhere from $325 to $400+ per wheel.

I can't afford them right now, but the TR forged wheels are sweet. Made in the USA too.
