Overall good experience.
$$$, but I'm happy with the result.
The problem I had was about a month after beadlocking, while driving, one of the inner rims fell off the wheel. I guess it wasn't welded on properly. Anyway, I sent it back to OMF, they took care of it, and beadlocked my spare for the trouble. As far as I know, Bruce hasn't had any trouble with his wheels.
Bones will help ya out.
I too have beadlocked my toyota wheels with OMF and am very happy with their work. it's expensive but well worth it
good luck!

I have them too.
In fact, I just remounted one the other day and took some pictures, stay tuned.
Bones is the man, hooked me up.

Can you still balance the wheels and tires? Or does it take too much weight after the beadlock ring has been welded on?
no problems balancing my 315's w/ the beadlock at discount tire

With 33" MT/R's, these wheels unbalanced were better than my steel wheels balanced.
Now I have 37" MT/R's. They are good up to 60. After that, I am driving a rock crawler.
Either you need beadlocks and will deal with the hassles or you don't. Dealing with the other stuff is offset by actually needing the locks off road.
If standard balance gives you problems, tryh airsoft pellets or dynabeads among others.

After losing one too many wheel weights, I've switched to DynaBeads, much better now....
never did have any issues with getting them balanced, as long as the proper cone was used in the first place. Smooth ride at all speeds.........
