Yes I will get a pic this evening. It was the first thing I looked at because I run 43 SX as well.
 
Here are some up close pics. Ring is .712”

I ordered a set of Vision Manx bead locks on a whim this week to mount my new set of 40/13.5/17 Sticky SX2s. I haven't heard/read of any pros or cons so far. But for 272 each why not give em a try. Naturally, I wont be using that hideous black centercap. They should be arriving today

Size : 17x8.5 Offset : -15 Hub Size :130.80 Load : 3650 Backspace : 4.16

I'm really happy with mine. They are dual drilled and tapped too. Which is super cool for when you inevitably screw up a hole.

That is good to hear. Did yours come with valve stems? I had a set of angled and straight Gorilla valves stems. Gong to see which ones work best and go that route.

I actually got them used wish a set of 39" reds so I'm not sure. Ugly black cap was also never in my possession :laughing:.

:flipoff2:

Seriously though, is that a true beadlock for that price? That's crazy cheap in today's prices.

I'm not sure if you're making a joke about the $11k or the actual price being super cheap?

I had no idea vision was a cheap wheel before boomtacos post, The fiat guy swears by his and he doesn't seem likes he's easy on stuff.
 
yep they got delivered yesterday. True beadlock for sure. Almost too pretty to beat up. Almost..

I was contemplating adding some color to them, but decided against it. Mounting them up tonight.

remember there are two Manx, a cast and a forged. Forged are like $800/ea. Not sure which fiat dude is running.
 
For under 300 I could deal with the spoke design that IMO is hideous but way better price than some allieds or methods

I guess I'm in the vision camp as well, they seem pretty nice, but I've only ever ran cheap steelies in the past. Just got them mounted up a week or 2 ago, haven't hit the trails yet.
 
ive been very happy with my dirtylife, but they have gone up in price. and their 20" versions are really confusing. I cant tell if y ou have to buy the ring seperate or what
