Do you know much about these Greg? Are they Cast,Forged or Billet? The info on the site is a little confusing as it mentions a solid piece of alluminium but then also mentions being cast. What stud patterns are they available in?1MadEngineer wrote:give the guys at locktup4x4.com.au a call, the trailgear creepers are just as cool!!!

So they're Cast by the look of it.What are Creeper Locks? Creeper Locks are Trail-Gear's very own, super strong, heavy duty wheels. These wheels look great and come at an affordable Trail-Gear price! Creeper Locks are 17" X 9" wheels with a backspacing of 3.75" and are made from a solid piece of aluminum. Each wheel weighs a whopping 45 lbs with locking ring and hardware. These are no ordinary aluminum wheel, Creeper Locks are super tough and built to last. Each wheel is cast with the inner beadlock as part of the wheel. All 24 of the bolt holes on the wheel have steel Time-Serts installed to prevent the bolts from galling. Drop down inner lip centers tire on to wheel during mounting.Features:

To me it infers that they are made from a piece of billet alloy. Where as cast is generally made by pooring molten steel into a mould or cast.Tiny wrote:x3chimpboy wrote:Me too. They are saying a cast wheel is "one solid piece".sierrajim wrote:I'd read that as one piece of cast alloy.
understand what you are saying, but in essence, the result of a casting is one single piece of cast ally. It if nothing else is clever marketing.RUFF wrote:To me it infers that they are made from a piece of billet alloy.
