Decent looking rim but the specs really aren’t anything to write home about.

4000 lb/wheel load rating is the selling point for them

Seriously? Unless you are complaining about the weight, which would go with the territory for the intended purpose, a Load Rating of almost 4,000 pounds is much better than any OEM or mass aftermarket rim.

IMHO

HTH

Edit to add:

I was writing so did not notice @AcmeSys post - what he said

Wonder how much it would cost to add ballistic glass and bullet resistant doors to my 200?
Probably more than it's worth.

You are in luck. There will be one for sale on Bringatrailer. Keep an eye on 200 page...

Seriously. Stock offset and 18" tire selection sucks. I guess I don't have a need for a 4,000lb load rated rim but if you do then great.

I’ve never seen an oil change described so seriously:

An oil change was carried out in November 2024.

Quite the wordsmith.

Those are just regular heavy duty wheel. and they are not bead locks.

They do make 5 x 150 lug bead locks with run flats which are not listed. They run about $2250 a piece.

 

[AcmeSys]

F23 is correct, the hutch 1982 is the low vis bead lock version of the 5x150. I dont remember them being crazy expensive pre covid ($550ish new) but most of the ones on the used market were DHL'd back home from combat zones.

1982-

 

[Fisher23]

WA-0550 is the bead lock but not the run flat & bead lock. they were about $550.

The run flat with bead lock version is not listed but they are available, just pricy.

Actually pretty typical for many BaT posts.

1982 is a bead lock like a 550. the low vis wheels have the bolts on the inner face.

Bead lock vs run flat just depends on what insert you use in the wheel

You guys are nerds.

Lots of companies bring in 70s and 300s for modifications for NGOs, military, government, and United Nations contracts. Not mysterious. Here’s an example for FY2022:

Bukkehave Inc., Fort Lauderdale, Florida, was awarded a $91,959,529 firm-fixed-price contract for Toyota Land Cruiser truck variants and common spare parts. Bids were solicited via the internet with two received. Work locations and funding will be determined with each order, with an estimated completion date of June 29, 2027. U.S. Army Contracting Command, Detroit Arsenal, Michigan, is the contracting activity (W56HZV-22-D-0063).

O’Gara-Hess & Eisenhardt Is a company I remember from years ago, but haven’t heard anything about in a while in the armored car space. Interesting to rehash this.

Battelle builds the socom nscv's. After a while you can tell what shop built which from small design tweaks like rocker panels and door frames

The 17“ steelies are awesome. Will powder coat mine next year once Bfg hopefully brings the KO3‘s to Europe.
No matter what abuse, they survive it. But they also don’t safe you from a flat tire
