read the for sale section! roctoy only just posted up that he is doing some very nice ones.

otherwise search (using all terms). there are many other sources of BL rings. off the top of my head, ryano at fourbies, cheezy racing, opw, core, and more.

There are a couple of places that will fit (weld) beadlock flanges onto alloy rims.

Often the outer ring will be the same steel version that everyone else runs with steel rims, but there are other options.

They are pretty expensive though, and the weight of all the bolts and ring, especially if fitted to a cast alloy will pretty much negate the weight advantage of the alloy. IMHO sell the alloys and buy some steel 15X8's with beadlocks. These will be ore durable and much cheaper.

Just my 2c worth.
