Wheel model
KMC Wheels KM549 GRS
The KM549 GRS is a recent KMC wheel, cast aluminum, built on the brand's popular beadlock platform. It features a classic split-spoke design offering excellent brake ventilation and good debris evacuation, complemented by a faux (simulated) beadlock ring for the style without the complexity of a true beadlock. Designed for truck and Jeep enthusiasts wanting an off-road look with strength suited to both street and trail, it comes in 17, 18 and 20 in., in widths from 8.5 to 9 in., with numerous bolt patterns (5x127, 6x135, 6x139.7, 8x165.1, 8x170, 8x180) and load ratings ranging from about 2500 to 3700 lb depending on configuration. Available finishes: gloss silver with machined face, machined with satin black lip, midnight blue with gloss black lip, and satin black. Target audience: mixed-use pickups and Jeeps looking for the beadlock look at a good price. In Quebec, favor dark or satin finishes to better cope with salt; verify offset, load rating and brake clearance.
