    Alright guys so I found some methods on Craigslist and the deal was literally to good to be true here is a screen shot of the Craigslist.

    He had them listed as a 135 but I knew they were 315s this should have been my first sign…



    Got to the sketchy ass gas station to meet checked all 4 out no scratches or dings everything looked great dude was cool other than reeking of bud light at 12 on a Sunday. so I got the methods and the tires for 600$ dude seemed legit and I mean that’s a $2000+ set up for $600 Typical East tn guy said he loved Toyota’s. I get them them home and go to mount them and they aren’t 6x5.5 they are indeed 16x8 so when I go to methods website I see the 16x 8 is only offered on there as 6x5.5 or 6x120. Can anyone confirm that these are the only two sizes they’ve offered in 16x8? I guess I’m going to have to buy adapters to run them but want to make sure I get the right size. What’re your all’s thoughts deal of the century or did he scam me?Where they stolen? Dude has deactivated the phone.

    Why not just measure the bolt/lug nut spacing? Since it’s an even number of lugs, it’s a super simple measurement no need to mess around with maths, simply measure the distance between two opposing holes centers.

    Most definitely stolen. Half price and uninformed on what he has... AND deactivated phone?! Hot product.

    Thanks for the reply @mutely take a look at these measurements I’ve searched for dims on a 6x120 but can’t seem to find them. Take a look at the pictures I attached. Honestly pretty ignorant to this topic so I appreciate the help .

    120mm = 4.725”. So assuming the perspective is righ on your picture, they are 6x120. (The 120 is mm on the 6x120 spec)

    6x5.5 (5.5 is inches in the 6x5.5 spec), so that measurement would actually be 5.5” if they were 6x5.5.

    @mutely youre the man. I appreciate the help here. I did call method today and they confirmed the 16x8 was only offered in the two sizes they had listed but I thought there may have been some early runs or something that could have differed. I really appreciate the help and quick response!
