How Battle Born Wheels Are Made

Wheels all bolt to your vehicle and mount your Nitto tires, but not all wheels are created equal. From construction differences such as cast versus forged and features such as bead retention and valve stem placement, there are a lot of details beyond aesthetics that can make one wheel more appealing than another. We visited veteran-owned Battle Born Wheels in Carson City, Nevada to take a sneak peak at the manufacturing process behind their American made wheels. While there we discussed construction methods, rim diameter, backspacing, offset, and more with Battle Born owner Chris McClung. *Chapters* 00:00 - Intro 01:02 - Battle Born Origin 02:32 - Built To Order 03:29 - Turn Around Time 03:53 - Chris McClung 04:34 - American Made 04:54 - Wheel Construction 06:36 - Beadlock Advantages 08:17 - Cast or Forged 09:16 - One Ton Swaps 10:41 - Nitto Tires 12:22 - Beadlock Hardware 14:44 - Offset and Backspacing 17:04 - CrawlSpec 20:00 - HoldFast Bead Retention 21:51 - Load Ratings 23:05 - Outro Related videos- Do You Really Need Beadlock Wheels for Off-Roading? https://youtu.be/BgMpM4IGj4s?si=D0papQkf-Dz5ctpT Drop a comment and let us know what you want to see next from Harry!
