Have you considered a wheel such as a Method Beadgrip or ICON Rebound? I'd personal pick the ICON out of the two for ease of wheel dismounting.

FYI beadlocks are not usually DOT approved for highway use.

Yep, I am familiar with the DOT issued and no longer commute with it. I am in Colorado and my local discount tires installs them. So cant be that illegal..

Might have to bring them in loose.

I had seen the icons and their system seems novel compared to traditional beadlocks

Bazinga! +25 offset

Looks like those +25’s only come in 95.1 hub bore. The 0’s have our 106.1 hub bore.

Anyone run beadlocks? Looking for comments from folks that have experience with them. Been airing down to 10 and want to go lower.

I have done some initial looking and found a rew potential candidates around $300 a wheel. Just trying to find some with positive offset.

First off, and I can only speak for CA, to the letter, beadlocks are not legal, but never heard of anyone being sited for them.
The problem that CA has with them is that they assume that beadlock owners will not be diligent enough to ensure ALL the bolts around the wheel are torqued. If a couple of bolts loosen or are missing, it can cause a huge blow with a heavy metal ring being shot out into traffic.
I believe JEFFKISTHENAME has them on his rig.
You could go with something like this: https://www.coyoteents.com/beadlocks/
It's an inner, inner tube that presses the bead to the rim on the inside. Cheaper and more legal. BUT... you'll have to drill another valve stem hole in your rims.

Per your question about PSI, you can run your pressure down to 5 or 8 PSI depending upon the tires side wall. I'm not an expert, but my guess is you should be able to run the tire low enough to the point where you're not rolling the rim over the folded sidewall going over obstacles. That's when you'll get "snake bite" punctures and tare's on sidewall, then you'll using the spare.

Does anyone know the GX’s air suspension compressor max psi? Or anything about the psi rating?

I guess aftermarket replacements go up to 180 psi. Good enough.
