METHOD WHEEL QUESTION (1 Viewer)

[LuisJr]

Lol no sh*t..... I didn't even think about that. But they installed them with the spacers left on at first and I was like uh oh. It looked awesome, but doubted much bigger would fit. But without the spacers I'm super itching to go bigger.

I need to get the ARB tire attachment, so I can show off that 5th wheel too haha

But good luck with the bushing. I'm highly considering a completely lower control arm set to avoid pressing stuff in. On a positive note, the Methods drive a hell of a lot better than when I had the tundra/spacer kit. I don't feel rushed to replace my steering rack anymore. Tracks much better and 90% of the steering wheel vibration is gone.

What are the dimensions on your wheels again?

 

[LuisJr]

18x9 with 18mm offset, I believe the majority of the other 18x9 methods wheels are 25mm offset.

@LuisJr It looks like you and I bought the exact same wheels.

Here's mine with 35/12.50's. (but I hadn't put the center caps on when I took the pic...)

 

[LuisJr]

Ugh I'm so freaking jealous of what you're packing hahahhahah

 

[CarcaineProblems]

hey, what is the size and offset of those? The standard 18x9 and +18mm?

Here is my TLC2004 w/Methods and OME Lift. Happy with setup, 18” wheel offset is different than stock.

If you're asking about the grey 311/VEX wheels that seemingly everyone bought, then yes.

@TLC2004blk

What size are you running on your NV's? Looks great.

 

[LuisJr]

I'm starting to get itchy for some pics @Roosevelt T lol how are we doing?

 

[jsigone]

Here are +18 offset method roost in tucking action

 

[LuisJr]

Looks you and I are ready to party at 305/65 hahah sexy

 

[jsigone]

Looks you and I are ready to party at 305/65 hahah sexy

will that fit in the spare location? any mods to the back of the hitch receiver?

 

[LuisJr]

Might be a super tight squeeze, I need to dig up the 305/65r18 thread on here. I thought they mentioned it. I'm waiting to get the tire attachment for my ARB rear so I'm not too worried about it.

And I need someone to by my current 275/70 Ridge Grapplers and Bith sets of my tundra wheels so I can free up some tire funds hahah

I'm on ko2 275/70-18 = 33.2 claimed = 58lbs each
spec ko2 305/65-18 = 33.5 claimed = 62lbs each

Here we go!

Method 18's with 18mm offset and 295/70/18 Cooper STT Pro's.

I am rubbing a tiny bit on the back side of the front wheel, but I have not gotten an alignment yet. However it is *not* on the pinch weld. Its on the small part of the floor (I am probably calling it the wrong thing) that runs from the outside of the truck to the pinch weld. I will make another post about this... I have researched it but I haven't seen anyone cut or bend this, so I want a second opinion before I do.

However...

I have SPC UCA's, so I am assuming if the alignment shop moves the wheel forward, this should be solved. However... this could cause some slight rub the from bumper, lol. I have a Dissent bumper that I am waiting on, so for me this is no big deal as it will be solved by the new bumper.

All in all... its a CLOSE fit. Keep in mind that the STT Pros are mud tires and have a higher overall diameter than most other 295/70/18's on the market (at least from my research).

My 100 series is the one vehicle I own that I never want to sell. And I am not a guy that is super concerned with stance in my vehicles. My RCF is on stock suspension and wheels, so is my Z3 Coupe. One of my M3's had coilovers and wheels, but it wasnt extreme at all. All this being said, even with the sliders and spacers, the truck still looked like a cross between an old man truck and a soccer mom SUV.... and the brown color doesnt help.

The wheels and stance have transformed the look of the truck. It looks a lot better than I thought and I am very happy with it. I cant wait to get the bumpers on now.

 

[LuisJr]

Totally twinning. I love it

Beautiful! And no need for spacers.
