Method brand wheels. Anyone?

[Wayne M.]

If I’m going to spend bucks on a second set of 3 or 4 gen wheels, I may consider aftermarket.
I hear these Method brand wheels are top notch and well coated. I’m looking for stock width and backspace. Diameter is open for discussion. Intended for summer driving and highway tread/ efficient tires.

Wayne, I have a set of Mickey Thompson SideBiter II. I bought them new in 2015 for my Nitto Dura Grappler tires. I use them for the towing season when I have my 5er hooked to the truck. The wheels are 17" inch, Bolt circle 8X170, with a zero offset, a 5" back spacing and will support a load of 3,640 LBS each. They are also available in 20 inch but no 18 inch size.
Here is a pic of them on my truck.

Those are nice, Jim. I like a smooth rim, symmetrical spoke, not holes, no rivets or fake bolts etc. I’m thinking a silver/argent/ graphite color.

I have had Methods, they are find but I dont find them any better then other wheels and have seen multiple ones crack under heavy off road use where other brands have not but I dont think that would be an issue for your use. There forged wheels are awesome but that a whole different world.

I think about it sometimes but I have confidence in the forged stockers. I do wish they were 8.5" or 9" wide though.

There’s a fellow on CompD that has a set of Method Double Standards for sale, $500. I do not know him but could get his contact info if you want. This is his listing:

(4) - Method Double Standard Wheels
They’re in good shape. Ran them for about a year. I was pretty religious with cleaning them and had them ceramic coated when I originally bought them. They are the machined version.

17” x 8.5”
8 on 6.5”
4.75” Back spacing

I’m looking for $500 for all 4. Centercaps included. I can ship them no problem. Pictures can be texted.

Thanks Scott, but I’m not in any situation to buy at the moment. I’m searching for options though.

Wayne,

Check out CJC Offroad's website.

https://www.cjcoffroad.com/

They carry Method Race wheels as well as a 17x9 Raceline wheel with offset designed exclusively for Ram trucks (screen shot below).

Please note that I have never done business with them, so there is no endorsement from me either way although I do follow them on Instagram. Looks like Method Race wheels and Carli suspension upgrades are popular out where they are in CA.

Regards,
Vincent

CJC Is a great company and Raceline wheels are very nice, I would take them over Methods personally.
