I'm interested to hear how well you're able to get them balanced - I'm assuming you'll go the airsoft/BB/ceramic pellet route?

I folded a rim last time I went to Moab ... these things are sweet but I don't need any new vibs!

Regular balancing method only one weight on inside of each rim they did have to spin one tire 180 degrees. I think I'm gonna paint the rings grey to make them stand out better what do you all think?

I like them grey, maybe with a slight gloss(can't tell if that's a flat grey or semi gloss) it would look better to match the XJ
