I just got some black 15 crawler rims. I was looking for one separate to pretty up the rim. I like this one, but can't seem to find it separate.

You could take those and get them painted blue to match your truck. I think that would look awesome.

I'm pretty sure the ones on the Champion page are actually real beadlocks. Not simulated. Could be wrong... but I thought Champion only made real rings.

at the price of those clip on simulated bead locks i think i would just go buy new wheels instead. i have simulated bead lock wheels and they were only like $45 each at my local wheel shop.
