Spacers required to fit it? They specifically leave out the 100 in their fitment guide, if I recall, so I assumed it interferes with the hub.

Nope they bolt right on. The Main Line Overland website shows the ET0 as a 100 Series application and the ET40 as (if I remember right) a 200 Series application. I preferred the ET40 so I stopped by and asked before purchase. I’m not sure why they list it this way it is confusing. I think they do show a photo of a 100 with the ET40 wheel.

Only thing I miss is the OEM lug nuts with that centering washer. I asked them to include lug nuts, and they did, but they feel like aluminum and not steel and way less satisfying to tighten than oem.

Ok, wow. Good to know. Now I've two potential wheels!
 
I run methods as well, look good and priced right.

I love your look, but I was under the impression that was a troublesome fitment when it came to wheeling and that something tucked a little more would be much more friendly with big tires. I'm intrigued to learn more!
With zero offset, you will certainly limit suspension travel in the front by an inch or more. The front tire does not tuck in the fender on compression. Does it matter? Most of the time on low speed rocky trails it won't matter, as the 100 is such a front wheel lifter anyway (3 wheeler).

Here is @Brandon Ryder on 35's, 60mm offset, 285 width.... and he is not even on the bumpstops. Imagine bringing the wheel out 60mm and using a wider tire.

I have the 17x8.5 0 offset 305/NV matte black and needed no spacer, goes right on.

I agree 35's on a 100 are a tight fit, ya gotta remove the fender liner, smash the pinch weld, relocate the windshield washer fluid, get bigger bump stops etc.. For the trails I'm running like the Rubicon the tradeoffs are worth it and the wheel/tire combo being out so far saved me from almost guaranteed body damage! Just my 2 cents

Anybody figure out a hack to be able to run center caps on the front of the 100 series with the NV's yet? Looks like Biga27110 maybe driilled a hole in the Method caps to allow the 100 series grease caps to poke through. Anybody else?
 
What size tires you running in these pics? I just ordered a Matte Black 18x9" +25 set off Amazon of all places haha. Price is MSRP, but I get 5% cash back with the Prime store card, not bad.

295/70/18 best tire size ever. Just need to bang back the pinch weld totally worth it. It makes the 100 a real beast.

You can purchase the correct size wheel cap now its like 55 dollars each i think. I drilled it because back in the day it wasn't available or widely known.
 
Nice, it says something available on Methods site however Discount Tire told me that's the biggest cap they sell & nothing fits. Lazy bastards. I'll call tomorrow & get the correct one sorted out. Looks like worst case scenario drilling them like you did or cutting the existing caps near the base & adding an extension could work but I think I'll just get the right caps. Will try to get a little discount seeing as they gave the tire shop bad info & I'll have to pull the wheels off to sort out the new caps.

Dont drill it you dont have too, the correct wheel cap is on their site, if you cant figure it out dm me.

Nice, and that size fit in the spare wheel well too?

I run 295/70r18 Atturo Trailblade XTs and I am very pleased with them.

I just ordered my 17 methods to copy @kreiten 35x12.50x17 setup. If only I hadnt seen his rig setup, I wouldve ran this setup for years. lol
