WayofLife previewed the B.A.D. wheels from the SEMA show, http://wayalife.com/showthread.php?...ssist-Device-Eklipse-17-Wheels&highlight=sema, and as I consider the next step in my build I am seriously considering these. I've done some searches for reviews but have found nothing. They do have another video which shows the installation but otherwise I haven't found anything else.

Let us Know what you think Md_rubi...I eventually want to run 40s, hopefully the Kspec Nitto's will be released, and these look awesome as well as seem really well built AND DoT to boot. The ATX were at the top of my list but now I'm leaning towards the B.A.D.

Nice looking wheels. If may ask what was the cost per wheel. I have been looking at several wheels and the prices start at $400 and go up. How doe they perform when aired down?

They have some neat features you won't see on other beadlocks, but I've heard they're a huge pain in the ass when it comes to mounting the tire because of the way the wheel clamps down on the tire bead on the inside.

Awesome wheel but from what I have seen, they are a real pain in the ass to install.

To be honest I do remember what I paid for them. It's be couple yrs. They do perform really well when aired down. I had then down to 4 psi once to test it.

To me all beadlock wheels are a pain and I've had just about all of them. The beads on these are different then your "traditional" beads where there are 3 aluminum bars clamp inside.

I would differently buy about set if I were to do another build
