I just came across your build, and it looks good! definitely contemplating doing coils in the rear of mine, just cant seem to pull the trigger on it. Looks good though!

I vote black hardware. Stainless would not match the gunmetal gray and would add a 3rd color to the wheels, black hardware would match the black wheels and tie the 2 color look together.

Well i have been banned for the last 10 days due to an a hole moderator so i just saw everyones posts.

My old wheels are still for sale

I have yet to look into the price for hardware for the wheels.

My inner rings and anti coning rings i ordered from DIYbeadlocks.com came a few days ago. They sent me a whole set for 16" wheels not 17"... So i sent them back and should have my correct set in another week or so. I would not recomend that site or beadlock kit to anyone. The service is Mediocre and the anti coning rings are a joke. They are maybe an 1/8" thick. A good set is atleast 1/2".

On a side note. I just bought my first house and i move in next month. It has a decent sized 2 car shop big enough for 2 jeeps and still has a lot of room. So because of this i probably wont be doing much more to the jeep for a while

Glad to see your back!

As for those anti-coning rings, could you stack 2 ontop of eachother?

They only send enough for a single layer on each wheel. Stacking 2 i dont think will be enough either.

I will post pictures of it all once it ships here

got the correct inner rings finally. i had to stack 3 layers of about 3/16s thick steel coning rings to get close to a half inch which was about what my old wheels had. but the wheels are all welded together, painted, and the tires are mounted. i just need to pick up some hardware for the outer rings and then i should be good to go!
