Waiting for my 2023 Base Bronco 2 -dr and have purchased 5 Wildtrac rims with beauty rings. Thinking of installing Mickey Thompson 285 70R17 Baja tires on new rims. Can I install beauty rings with 11 T45 bolts on rims before new tire install. Hear stories of tire installers stripping bolts and would rather do myself and then take new rims for tire install. Thanks for a reply.

They can be installed before hand, but it may be a good idea to wait until after the tire is on… just in case someone uses too much “uggah duggah” and scratches up the beauty rings.

The beauty rings are just trim pieces… doesn’t impact the actually functionality of the wheel/tire or how it’s mounted.
