You really dont need any mods to run those trails- (lift would be helpful on MineralCreek.) but tires are an important consideration.
You may come out unscathed with your P rated tires but with all that added weight your chances for tire failure are increased- question is: are you prepared to...
I do like the SCS bronze colorway and their product is substantially lighter weight compared to others which is preferred- but they've limited options/styles/offset in 5x150 and I'm not crazy about what is available.
Interested to know consensus on Bronze color wheels. Its a color that's on trend right now, and various shades of bronze that looks kind of cool on certain white or black trucks, question is it a color that will endure or go the way of chrome wheels from the 70's? Fwiw- 2020 LC Heritage edition...
(JENGA- JENGA)
4WHEEL Parts usually has BF deals and no tax, as does Northridge 4x4- keep an eye out there. Discount Tire will match their deals if you want to buy there.
The Method wheels I currently have are not hubcentric- and when mounted correctly (tightened while off the ground) they spin fine.
But, hubcentric and lug centric is what the factory wheel is and if you/they are going through the exercise of having a wheel created for 100~200 series use...
ADV- the excuse given from BFGoodrich could argued if you wanted to push. I had a set replaced under warranty at the 10k mark for a different concern on my LC that are also slightly oversized for the application and they never brought that point.
I would take the credit and buy a set of...
was curious- on my Ram 2500 I dont think I ever ran the pressures up that high more like mid 60's- it drove/rode like crap at 80psi. But I didn't tow anything over about 7-8,000 lbs either.
Since this thread lives in tire & wheel, once we get communications rolling again might be worth putting another bump on the 100 series and 200 series thread to recapture some interest.
Im in no rush, so if it comes together sooner or later thats cool. Im not sure everyone has a context for the savings based in the original quote of $75 a wheel but I think retail on these are like $125-130 ea, so $50-55 discount per wheel is worthwhile.
Im leaning towards 5 matte black with 25 offset if this all comes together. Would like to know a confirmed test fit clears the front hub and fits hub-centric. Did we get a weight rating yet?
Thanks
You can play around with this offset calculator. It also illustrates wheel position relative to suspension.

Looks interesting. you've taken on a big task fielding the flow of questions. If don't they don't yet have a wheel with 110.3 bore, are you or someone going to be able to test fit one ahead of the group buy to ensure these clear the front hub cleanly? Also the weight rating shows 2,000lbs for...
States right on their website 3peak Mountain Snowflake rated-
All Terrain T/A KO2 All-Season Tire | BFGoodrich Tires
Mine are M&S and have the the 3Peak Snowflake symbol.
K02's are a great tire. 3ply sidewall, good traction, M&S rating, quiet, long lasting(@ roughly 20k miles I am between 12/32 & 13/32), and nice looking design. In Silverton this year, sidewalls took some pretty deep scrapes (sculpted out some rubber from the sidewall on Poughkeepsie) from sharp...
