New Method 701 street legal "beadlocks"

Does discount tire carry these in a 16 to fit a 3rd gen Tacoma? Also if it says “on order” what kind of time frame are you looking at on getting them? @Discount Tire Direct


(Preferably black) looking to order tomorrow.

 

Thank you for reaching out, Nimbostratus.

We're currently sold out of the 16" version in matte black (and matte bronze). We can, however, order a set in for you

As far as fitment goes, the 16" does fit the 3rd gen; I'm not sure why the site states otherwise. My apologies for the confusion with that!

 

What kind of time frame is expected on orders like that?

 

Lead time is typically 7 to 10 business days from the date of purchase to home delivery.

 

@methodracewheelsalex when are you all expecting to have more black 16x8 701s available?

 

Does anyone know the wheel weight of the 16”?

 

Anyone try to air these down considerably yet/get some good testing on them? They look nice.

 

I tried to but we got hit with snow and we're under winter watch warnings. Hopefully this coming weekend. I can say that these wheels will make some people rub depending on their suspension. Not to the point of doing a CMC but on the spring compression if they hit a bump too fast.

 

Hmm- even with UCA's? I have UCA's and only 2 inch lift on 285's and 0 rubbing. Would be surprised if I slapped 255's on these and there was rubbing.

 

I'm on stock UCAs so My other wheels would never do anything of this nature but they were tucked inwards a bit more. Regardless, I'm not worried about it. It only happened once when entering a gas station a little hot with a good dip on the entry.

 

Got my Method 701s mounted up today. 17x8.5 265/70/17. Stock suspension.

 

Looks great, Nimbo!

 

Dunno if i like the color or not. Ordered longer studs. Need to finish blacking out the rear bumper too.

 

3 psi and GOOOOO

 

I had my tires mounted on my black 701's at America's Tire. They used silver colored TPMS retaining nuts. Silver on black looks stupid. It sticks out like a sore thumb. What are you guys doing for yours? I didn't notice it till I got home. I'm going to call them on Monday and see if they have them in black. If not, I'm going to either buy some black retaining nuts and change them out myself, or paint the ones that are on there.Even my dog thinks they're lame. Other than the retaining nut, I love the wheels.

 

Painted mine in a pinch. Silver lug nuts and silver valve stems look like ass with the bronze. Luckily i ordered black lugs a head of time.

 

Those look nice

 

@methodracewheelsalex Are these lug or hub centric?

 

Hope Method doesn't mind us jumping in here, but this model is hub centric
