Hutchinson Beadlock Aluminum Wheel – 8.5 x 18 | ET55 | 8×6.5 Bolt Pattern

Engineered for serious off-road performance, the Hutchinson Beadlock aluminum wheel is a two-piece, high-strength rim designed to meet the toughest demands of the Mercedes G-Wagon 4×4², G 63 AMG 6×6, and other LeTech portal axle vehicles.

Featuring a dimension of 8.5 x 18 with an ET55 offset and a bolt circle of 8 x 6.5, this wheel ensures precise fitment for a variety of G-Wagon variants with 8-hole hubs. The standout feature is the integrated Beadlock liner (item no. 1279), which mechanically secures the tire bead to the rim on both sides. This provides exceptional safety when running ultra-low air pressure in extreme off-road conditions—preventing air loss and tire dismounting during demanding trails.

The wheel also incorporates an internal air channel allowing seamless integration with the LeTech tire pressure control system. Air passes from the portal axle hub through a spoke into the rim chamber, enabling real-time pressure adjustments.

Finished in rugged matte black powder coating for corrosion resistance and a commanding look, the Hutchinson Beadlock wheel is also available in custom finishes on request—ideal for adventurers who demand both function and aesthetics.
