G500 Wheels
Hi there,
Best deals bar none are getting Hutchinson Beadlock Wheels through www.high-impact.net/wheels/dot_approved_beadlocks.htm
they cost around $450-475 per wheel. The same wheels as G63 6x6.
I'm currently turning my G500 into this version, will post a build thread when completed

You are? That thing looks like it must be on portal axles. Are you going to also do that?
http://www.killeraxles.com/html/mercedes_g1.html and http://www.gfg-shop.de/shop/product_info.php?info=p1041_1-Satz-Bolt-On-Portale.html both sell bolt on portals.. The price is rather high. If you are going that route it would be nice if you could share the process.

I've been in talks with Le Tech USA, ORC.de, Wolfgang, killer axles and gfg, etc. all North of $20K. For now I'm saving $20k by placing a custom spring lift/ Body lift and adding 2" spacers to each wheel. Same look minus the portals. There is a company out of the Philippines that sells a bolt on portal for G wagons at $20k USD. They've had complaints about cheap metals being used which have broken down for clients. They've assured me they have the problem solved. When/if portal axles get to the $10k range I'll be the first in line. It's just hard for me to Justify the cost when I paid $19,900 for my 2003 G500.
