Wheels are getting more interesting and by the time I get to submit my order there will be 1000's of choices and I am sure something will jump out at me I like.

Wrong type of bead locker.

You can install inflatable ones that give you low speed run flat capabilities which means you essentially have 4 spare tyres onboard, without carrying even one. Will cost you less and you can run them on any rim. Also protects your rim when aired down and doesn't reduce range like these monsters will.

These are all the “bead lock” wheels anyone using a stock cybertruck would ever need. Ive run my wheels at 3 psi in deep snow and 8 psi in rocks dozens and dozens of times without losing a bead. Traditional beadlocks are extremely tedious to install and require a lot of maintenance.

Inflatable versions I posted are better IMHO.

These look ideal. Maybe I was looking in the wrong place, but I didn’t see any sizes larger than 17” though. I would definitely use this style over the regular bead lockers.

Yeah there's a few different manufacturers.
I haven't spent much time sourcing larger versions yet, but they shouldn't be hard to manufacture. There's some Aussie ones as well.

If you find some 20" let us know please.

Features and performance are ideal match for the CT. Especially the runflat/spare feature set.

Better depends on what you mean. In a question of absolute bead retainment, the best solution is the hutchison beadlock but it weighs over double what a comparable wheel does.
The CT isnt going to fit down trails that need that level of bead retention

Another note is bead-lock rims are typically not DOT approved and thus considered illegal for on-road use.

O boy ?
