Method Wheels Pic Request

Method only makes 1 size that fits the 2nd Gen Taco in 16x8, 4.5" BS, 0 Offset.. I had Camburg spindles and UCA (+2 Camber), so absolutely no rubbing, lock to lock and I wheeled it hard..

 

I was looking at 17x8.5, 4.75 bs , 0 offset. Tire rack says they'll fit the tacoma. Not sure if I trust that.

 

Your stock wheels have more of an offset than that. Yes those will fit.

 

16" Method Double Standards wrapped in 285 MTR's

 

Just put em on. Love the look so much. I originally wanted the TRD fake beadlocks, but in person I actually liked these more!

16x8 Double standard with machined lip. 4.5 backspacing and 256/75r16 BFG AT KO tires. No lift yet, its sitting in my garage

Only rubs on the mud flap when turning close to lock, and I know it wont once I either lift it or remove them. Made the truck look completely different!

 

Pure sex right there! I want these as well, but looking for somebody with a bit better than MSRP price....

 

Try Americas tire or discount tire. Best prices I have found and they can order almost anything, just ask! I ended up going to tire rack , and got the tires from America's tire before I knew I could order through them!

 

Lookin good! Nice upgrade

 

How much are you selling them for?

 

You know.. I'm still on the fence about the wheels.. the tires i will sell.. If you're serious, shoot me a PM and we can discuss it there, since this isn't the right forum..

 

Just got these installed today. Love them so far. The Toyos ride nice and smooth.

Looks good there GreyTaco. I want the Double Standard with the "machined" lip. It is same black in the center but the outer "bead lock" piece is brushed silver color. I would reall prefer it in 7 or 7.5" wide, but 8" wide will work too.

 

16" Method 301s on my 2008 Tacoma (315/75/16 Toyo MTs)


Now mounted on my 2001 4Runner (255/85/16 Toyo MTs)


Tacoma is getting a fresh set of 17" Black Double Standards and 35/12.5/17 Toyos, Double Standards will be replaced with Beadlocks eventually, just not today.

 

Nice! Love the bolts! I was actually thinking today that blue anodized bolts would look sweet on mine. Just don't know where I could get some.

 

I had mine powdercoated and they have held up pretty good. I'm debating having the entire wheel coated on the double standards but I will probably end up doing just the ring.

 

I just ordered a set of the Method Double Standard, Machined wheels. They are black with the "bead lock" part in brushed aluminum finish. Just put a deposit on a set at SDHQ. This particular wheel is out of stock but Method has a few sets coming available in a couple weeks and now (with a deposit) a set is going to be mine. Going to put a set of the "Tall & Skinny" 255/85R16 BFG M/T tires on the Taco. hoping these wheels being a little lighter than most will help offset the heavy weight of these tires.... As for gearing I will run the stock 3.73 ring and pinions until I really feel the need to get the 4.56 ratios...

 

Double standards hereee

 

EVE Designs: Nice truck, the wheels set it off nicely! I have Icon mid-travel as well but not the bump stops, good stuff.

 

Ditching the bronze countersteers Bill?

 

No, but I just bought some used 255/85R16 BFG Mud Terrains so I can try out the "Tall & Skinny" fitment. My bronze Konig Countersteers with 265/75 DuraTrac tires are working fine on and off-road so I will leave them as is. Then I can experiment with the BFG Muds and Method wheels (when SDHQ gets them in about 10 more days).
