Our story
Built for the track. Engineered for the street.
OEM Beadlocks was founded by racers who were tired of choosing between factory fitment and beadlock capability. We built the solution we couldn't find anywhere else.

The origin
Why OEM-style matters
Most beadlock wheels look like they belong on a show truck — oversized rings, aggressive styling, zero subtlety. That's fine for some builds. But if you're running a factory-look Tacoma, a Raptor, or a Wrangler that needs to pass tech inspection and still turn heads in the paddock, you need something different.
We started converting OEM wheels in 2014 out of a two-car garage in Phoenix. The goal was simple: take the exact wheel that came on your truck from the factory, machine it to accept a beadlock ring, and give it back to you looking like it rolled off the assembly line — except now it can hold a bead at 5 PSI on the rocks or the sand.
Today we ship to all 48 contiguous states and work with professional off-road racing teams, overlanders, and weekend warriors who refuse to compromise on fitment or function.
How it works
The conversion process
Select your wheel
Choose from our catalog of OEM-matched beadlock wheels. Every design starts from the factory spec for your exact vehicle — Tacoma, Raptor, Wrangler, Tundra, and more.
Precision machining
Each wheel is CNC-machined to accept our proprietary beadlock ring. Tolerances are held to ±0.002" — tighter than most OEM specs — so the ring seats perfectly every time.
Ring installation & torque
The beadlock ring is installed with grade-8 hardware and torqued to spec. We use a staggered pattern to ensure even clamping force around the full circumference of the bead.
Quality inspection
Every wheel is pressure-tested, visually inspected, and photographed before shipping. If it doesn't meet our standard, it doesn't leave the shop.
Shipped to your door
Wheels ship double-boxed with foam protection. Most orders arrive within 5–7 business days. Expedited options available for race weekend deadlines.
Why beadlocks
The case for running beadlocks
Low-pressure traction
Airing down to 10–15 PSI dramatically increases your tire's contact patch on sand, mud, and rock. Without a beadlock, you risk debeading the tire and losing control.
Race-proven reliability
Every major off-road racing series — Baja 1000, King of the Hammers, Ultra4 — runs beadlocks. The technology exists because the alternative fails under race conditions.
OEM fitment advantage
Factory-spec bolt patterns, offsets, and hub bores mean no spacers, no rubbing, and no compromised handling. Your truck drives exactly as the engineers intended — just with beadlock capability added.
Street-legal appearance
Our rings are designed to look like factory trim rings. Most people can't tell the difference at a glance — which matters if you're running a daily driver that doubles as a race rig.
