    I had been waiting on that reveal too before making a decision, and the style ended up not being what I was looking for. Once that was off the table the 701s were an easy choice, checked a lot of the boxes for me.

    I’d recommend sending them a PM, they are very responsive and will take good care of you. That’s the route I took and it all went smoothly.

    Thank you for the kind words. I agree the photos don't do them justice. Method puts out great quality products.

    Can't wait to see them installed.

    Got my 701s installed over the weekend at Discount Tire. Loving the look of these wheels in black against the BBP truck. I'm running them without the center caps for now as I'm waiting for the red letter center caps to come back in stock. I was moving from the SEMA wheels that were 17x7 to these that are 17x8.5, it's amazing to me how much bigger the tires look with the wider wheel! Plus I got a little side poke with the tires which is what I was looking for.

    17" with Terragrappler G2 285/70 with 3.5" lift. CMC will be necessary as well as trimming the flares... aka the usual. Very happy. Thank you Don @Discount Tire

    Thanks, tires are fantastic as well. really happy. was on stock trd 16s with 265/75/16 Terragrappler and went with the G2s in 265/70/17 and was less than a 1lb increase in weight, both E rated/10-ply. and here's the difference:

    /edit: I know lack of sidewall hurts off road/air down performance. this truck is mostly pavement. I'm thinking of getting some tall skinnies for the old wheels to use when its appropriate for the trip.
