A new set of aftermarket off-road wheels for your 4x4 vehicle can have a big impact on your rig's performance on and off road, and there are several things to consider before ditching your stock wheels. You'll want to think about whether they're aluminum or steel wheels, what finish was used (powder coating, painted, or polished), whether they're beadlock or traditional wheels, the wheel size, the weight of the wheel, the wheel's lug pattern, what the wheel's offset and backspacing are, and how much valve stem protection the wheel offers.

In this video I’ll break it all down for you to help you make the best decision before making that expensive purchase for your Jeep Wrangler, Toyota Tacoma, Ford Bronco or whatever off-road or overland vehicle you're driving.
