17inch wheels with beadlocks?

hey guys i am about to order my lift, tires and wheels but i am looking for wheels with a beadlock. it doesn't have to be functional just for looks would be ok.. i just love the look of a big gnarly tire and a beadlocked off road rim. well anyone who knows of a 17inch rim with beadlock please share!

You'd have to use the simulated beadlocks if you want to drive your truck on the road. It's illegal to run true beadlock wheels on any city/hwy roadway.

i am not looking for a true beadlock as i would never offroad enough to validate the purchase.. just want that aggressive look that they give but some of the "simulated beadlocks" look more realistic than others if that makes any sense?

Those Mickey Thompsons are nice. I ordered mine (18") yesterday. Hope to have them put on Saturday or Monday depending on when they arrive from the shipper
