H1 Alpha Aluminum Double Beadlock Rims

Im going to try on a set tomorrow. Has anyone ever tried these on our trucks? They are 17" and I imagine will clear the calipers just fine. Just curious to see if anyone has experience with them. Additionally, they have 37" Wrangler GS-A tires. Hopefully, they will not rub too terribly much until I have time for more lift. At any rate, I will try to snap some photos of one mounted on my truck.

Update. I tried them on, and the backspacing is too deep. They measure 7.5" of B.S. and about 9" wide overall. The contact point is at full lock, the rim contacts the tie rod... what a bummer, these rims are so sweet.

I don't really want to use a spacer. I suppose a 1" would do it... but I've always been leery of them. Good thought though I need to get up some pics of them on...
