Help ID some beadlocks

[strange1]

Ended up with a set of 17" beadlocks. I believe around 9" wide with some serious backspacing. Does anyone recognize this logo? I can't find any markings anywhere else on them, the inside of the wheels are all scuffed up pretty bad. Not sure if that is upside down or not, but to me it looks like a TW. Not sure what it would be the other way.

Hmmmmmm...

Is that a TW? Maybe some old Trail Worthy Fab wheels?

 

[Fabrik8]

Upside down it might say MJL?

The Trailworthy logo is different now, but maybe that's an earlier logo?

 

[strange1]

They look like these Method wheels.... I will try to email them that logo and see what they say.

Tubeworks

Thank you. That's why I ask here.

Next question. Is it possible to drill six lug hubs and axle shafts to have either 6 or 5 lug pattern? Or would I need to weld up the 6 lug pattern and start over?

Would adapters not work? They'd be the easiest way to go.

 

[ol'Jeeps]

yes. We figured this out once! You can easily do it with the same bolt circle. (the first pic should read 5.5" cricle, not 6.5"!)

However with a 5" original circle, one hole will intersect the original "common" hole

 

[Fabrik8]

That's sketchy as shit without welding up the old holes. Too much metal removal otherwise with the new holes that close to the old holes.

Would adapters not work? They'd be the easiest way to go.

Because of that common hole, and the close proximity of the others, it takes a 2-piece adapter/spacer. Which would work since I need a spacer to overcome the offset. I'm just not sure how comfortable I am with multiple pieces of aluminum between the wheel and hub.

What pattern are the rims and what do you need them to be? What axles do you want to put them on?

It sounds to me like you're better off making a trade with somebody?
