    Since Method Wheels are used in lots of racing applications I don't think the wheel is bent. You might have broken a stud or bent an axle. Hopefully it's just wheel weights.

    Little update:
    Got a full size 35x12.5x17 spare on the bumper, and also got the Trasharoo back on there.
    Thanks to Matt (BlackTacoma23) for the spare.

    Might as well throw this up here. Been doing some work on the truck getting it ready for Ouray. Ordered some bushwackers from Amazon and trimmed them up. More pics to follow. But for now:

    Had to make a run to Ace hardware for a set of 38 gold grade 8 bolts.

    They work to show your progress. I still want bushwackers myself.

    I haven't had the chance to test them out unfortunately. Still need to finish up the rears and put my bumpers back on.

    And install my skids, but I dont know what to do about those.

    The leftovers from the Bushwacker/ Cut fenders more project.
    IMG_6697_zpsz1amkl5e_a5f4b284e9345c45fa63fec1114d0483b934bd00.jpg

    The final cut without trim. Both Bushwacker and fender trimmed more.
    IMG_6695_zpsesehornq_c7e100b93dc42a6457e5dc478fcd52c392fda600.jpg

    Cut the rear fenders a little more than 2", Had to drop rear bumper as you can see in this one.
    IMG_6675_zpso7kbsxvy_9791c28b9d706d2852973ddb1ab466de1ed3e4a0.jpg

    Final cut from passenger side:
    IMG_6671_zps7rdjgfxl_ee8a56de3b55be448a95f337953a9f91858f7066.jpg

    Couldnt have done it without this little buzzard
    IMG_6672_zpsywbyqe2w_07ce55e1e3645f90cdb9fbf06940aa9f7c83dc64.jpg

    Trimming for rear bumper. Measure a ton, cut once.
    IMG_6691_zpsb4cbdfyc_dae44af1e16f0e241e2e83c8645fd1efe5447bea.jpg

    Finished cut Bushwacker with gold Grade 8 bolts.
    IMG_6693_zpssxg0bay1_e1dd2b815cd10d03cf025dd3b3ced7441b7ccba0.jpg

    More pics to follow. Also picked up a Viair 450p today and I hope to hardmount it under the hood.

    Having difficulty installing my RCI skids. Hope to get those on soon. Poor design to make a skid based off of the stock skid plate brackets in my opinion, mine are long gone from Allpro skid so I cant install RCI skids.

    Noah did RCI have a note about the brackets on the website or did they disclose that to you before you purchased? If no then I say return it if t will not work for you. There are plenty of other options out there.
