Method 703 17x8.5 +35 and Nitto Terra Grappler G3 285/70 r17

[gmalkmus]

Flipped flopped back and forth between grabbing +0, +20, +25, or +35 wheels for a long time. Ultimately found a set of Method 703s on Facebook Marketplace in +35 and decided to take the plunge. Very happy with the result and I think I would not have been satisfied with a lower offset wheel. The +35 still has a nice amount of poke without as much worry about flinging crap all over the side of the truck. I did not find any hub rings that would work with the 106.25 mm Method bore, so just used 14x1.5 ET lugs. No vibration or any weirdness going on.

Love the look, let me know your thoughts!

Clean AF! Looks great.

I had +25 on my SR5 and went up to +40 with my methods (no fender flares) and I agree with you that just a little poke is best. Looks good, practical, keeps the truck clean!

I didn't need hub rings with my methods either, no problems, but just got them for S&Gs. Got these. Looks like the plastic ones aren't available anymore for whatever reason, but these are:

I'll admit I was following your wheel journey before I grabbed these - I agree with you on the offset! I think the +40 is best for the SR5 and the +35 is perfect for the Sport/OR.

I ordered those rings but tempted to return them - wonder if the difference between 106.1 and 106.25 mm is enough to get hung up on.

Lol yea I did some serious wheel shenanigans

I'll be honest, I didn't even know they were off! Thanks for pointing that out. Someone more knowledgeable might know. They seemed to fit. Don't think I'd notice anyways since the lug centric design of the methods takes care of everything anyways I guess. Just got them for extra insurance because they were cheap.

I'll just keep them and throw them on next time I get the tires rotated!

From the few things I read, they can just help with centering the wheel while tightening, but the lugs really do it.
I did see these ?
