Method MR317 - New wheels incoming!

[zr2_702]

Hi all,

Just ordered a set of Method MR317 in titanium for my 23 ZR2. I am really hoping they do not rub as I don't particularly want to cut or trim the truck. I am using the stock 275/70/18 tires. Wheel specs are 18x9 +3 offset. I originally wanted to get the +18 offset as I know they won't rub but Method said the dumb brake calipers could be an issue. So I went with +3 offset to ensure proper caliper clearance.

Hoping to have them installed tomorrow or Thursday this week!

You may have issues with rubbing the upper control arm with a "+" Positive offset.

You may want to read this Offset Expalined. Most people here run a zero or "-" negative offset.

The stock wheels are a +26mm offset though and dont rub. I could see if i was doing a super wide tire or 10-11 inch wheel. But figured a 9 inch wide with stock tire should be fine considering im moving it further away from the UCA by an inch

Looks good! Are those the stock Goodyears or did you change tire size too? The positive offset looks better than I expected.

Looks good! Can’t figure out how your knee tires left no tire tracks on that gravel road though

That looks awesome, and the pic looks like it came from a Chevy commercial.

Looks great! Method has some nice wheels and I like their non standard finishes.

Looks awesome - also looks like a Method Wheels ad in Motor Trend, or similar

I’ll be selling my all black factory wheels and tires if interested. I’m located in Ca.

Look into getting your stock wheels professionally powder coated. I can get it done here for about $700 for all 4 and that includes remounting and balancing.
