Can't decide on wheels - who wants to help?

[TacoBirdinNW]

Idk how to make a poll, but I've narrowed it down to the Method 321 Machined @ +18mm offset or method 318 Gloss black @ 0 offset.

Partial to machined, but sometimes with my current rig I feel like they're too flashy, especially in 18s.

Here's some AI slop. What do you guys think ?

On a black truck, I lean towards Method's bronze, black, or titanium. Titanium would look pretty sweet I think -- especially since Trailhunters come with bronze.

I dig the bronze too ! I really love machined wheels but sometimes the pop just a little too much.

I think the machined looks a lot better on blue, and there is just too much contrast between the black truck and machined wheels. In other words, they pop too much.

Now, if you think rock rash is in your future, you could clean your current wheels really well and then rattle can them. Then all scuffs are easy to paint over. But, if rock rash isn't in your future getting them professionally painted (or just new wheels) looks better.

I wouldn't rattle can my wheels even on a shit box

But offset isnt right on the current wheels so selling. Method is hooking me up with a good discount so essentially no cost to me to switch up to wheels.

That's the part that matters most.

I only suggest rattle canning wheels if they're going to get scraped up by rocks. That's the big issue with all painted wheels -- their scars pop in a very bad way. Going with flat black and rattle canning the scars at least makes it look good from a distance.

Scrapped the machined. Scrapped the Gloss. Too shiney.

Was stuck between matte and bronze.

Think I'm going Matte 705. Now between +18mm and 0 offset

Gonna toss in a vote for bronze. Everyone and their grandma run solid black wheels these days. I personally don't see the point in even caring what the spoke pattern looks like when they're solid black because they all look the same from 15+ feet away.

Bronze would look good and stand out in a sea of same-y black wheeled trucks without also being too much of a eye magnet.

Ahhh. Yea that bronze looks good on black ! Shoot.

Of the options, bronze. I have bronze Methods on my truck and like them.

If you're open to a more unique look, Bahia Blue.

I don't see that color in 18" and only have 5k miles on my 275/70r18 nittos

Bronze it is then. Shame the blue isn't in 18" sizes cause I think that would have been a cool color combo.

I love machined wheels, but it's pretty intense on black. Looks better on a smaller wheel imo too

"Think I'm going Matte 705. Now between +18mm and 0 offset"

0 offset is going to be very aggressive, being that your SR5's flares are a bit narrower than the Sport/Offroad/ etc.

I believe he’s still planning on a TRD Pro.
