22×9 FORGLITE GF1 Monoblock Forged Beadlock-style Wheel for Mercedes G-class

Conceptual Images:

The new 22″ FORGLITE Monoblock Forged Beadlock-style wheel will be very similar to the 18″ wheel shown below. The main differences will be diameter (22″ instead of 18″), 0ffset (+20 instead of +50), Forged instead of Cast, TPMS compatible, lighter, and much easier to install tires. But the design will be very similar.

Features:

– Manufactured, Assembled & Finished in the USA
– Lifetime Limited Structural Warranty
– Modular 2-Piece
– Aerospace-grade 6061-T6 forged aluminum for high strength-to-weight ratio
– Engineered to minimize unsprung mass and rotational inertia for maximum performance and handling
– CNC machined to your custom specifications for your specific application
– Compatible with OEM TPMS and lug bolts for easy installation

Better than Beadlock wheels?

Unlike Mercedes 6×6 AMG and G550 4×4  Squared beadlock wheels, these have the look without the hassle.  Mercedes 6×6 AMG and G550 4×4 Squared beadlock wheels are heavy, difficult to fit or mount tires (due to liner and the design of the wheel), difficult to fit or incompatible with TPMS, difficult to balance (lots of weight on the outside of the wheel due to hardware), and expensive. FORGLITE’s 2-pc forged wheels are lighter than beadlocks, tires are mounted and balanced like any tire, easily accept TPMS, and cost much less.

However, true Beadlock wheels for the Mercedes 6×6 AMG and G550 4×4 Squared are CTIS (Central Tire Inflation System) compatible.  That means, tires can be deflated and inflated on-the-go.  Just push a button and you can run incredibly low tire pressures while keeping the tire on the wheel.  That’s the main disadvantage here.  But for G-class owners that don’t need to inflate/deflate on-the-go, we think the FORGLITE wheel is the best option.

Currently, the 20×9 FORGLITE wheel for Mercedes G-class is manufactured in a +20 offset.  This is perfect for the 2019-on G55 and G63.  It also fits all of our 2″ and 4″ lift kits using 33×12.5R20 or 35×12.5R20 with G63 or G63-style Fender Flares — no need for wheel spacers! But if you need a true beadlock wheel, these are the best options…
