Do it once to learn. It's not bad. I did 6 not to long ago.

Don't.  A caveman could do it.  There's nothing to learn that's worth mounting 6 beadlocks.
Not all cavemen know that to check bolt tq that you need 0 psi to do so.

Well he learned that without having to waste a day mounting 6 beadlocks.
Don't understand your point. Mounting 1 for learning purpose is worth it.

I did one on Tuesday night...not terrible, done one at a time.  I used a drill with a clutch to get the bolts down, then I did the round and round and round with the torque wrench.

If you're going to do it yourself, it makes it a lot easier if you make a cardboard cut out ring to go around the bolts and number them with the tightening sequence, which is the cross, 90, cross method.

I also have a cardboard cutdown to paint my steel rings.  Can't handle the aluminum gouging that i got with aluminum rings.

John taught me a sweet technique to touch up the steel rings. Love it.

Maybe he will share w you. I'm not at liberty to pass it along.

I criss cross with an impact until they are descent and then use a torque wrench.

For all of you who have AL, use the sliver anti seize on all the bolts. Keeps them from making it where they don't come out. The set on the tj, PO didn't do that. I had bolts smoking with an air impact. Broke a few bolt heads off. Beat a few with a dead blow and the bit to get them loose to start with. That's after 24 hour of pb blaster soaking.

I just took a paint marker and marked  bolts 8,16,24,32. From there it's easy to count away from them to do the right pattern.

That's what i did. I did for at about 30 min each.

Of course, mine are dirty, we're used, and the tires had to be taken off the old wheels using the harbor freight tool. Now THAT is a pain in the ass.

New tires on new rims? That a breeze
