New method wheels

Hey guys I’m about to put on my methods mr315 they are 17x8.5 0 offset I want a flush wheel I have TRD flares as well I am lifted and putting on 285/70r17 with a level in the front I want to know if I need spacers to achieve this and if I will rub I have 4.75 BS

 

Put them on. You may rub the frame a bit but then you will know if it’s enough to care.

 

0 offset 285/70/17 on method nv305

before no spacer after with spider spacer 1.25.

I did not end up running the spacer because it push the wheel out to far and required more cutting that I wasn’t comfortable doing myself. Spacer we’re on the truck for about 5min

 

what exactly needed to be trimmed

 

Looked good with the spacers Jerry. What did it rub on?

 

Rubbed the fender flares off the clips and inside supports

you can see how much I’ve cut away already. Right up to the bolt. Iv since cleaned it up, you can also see the frame rub. Iv learned to live with the frame only rubbing at full lock to the left.

Love the look with spacers it was just to wide and rubbed a lot.
I noticed double cabs 05-06 and smaller wheel, wells and other years and AC

 

It rubbed the frame with the spacers?

 

It wouldn't surprise me. Not having an adjustable UCA like SPC's offering gives you a bit less flexibility in how you can triangulate things. My guess is that could be tuned out to avoid rubbing with an adjustable upper, but it's just that: Guessing.

No issue with using spacers, as long as you understand what NOT to do after install, and making sure everyone else who touches the wheels knows they're on there and what NOT to do with them installed.

 

Doesn’t make sense to me if that’s the case. Pushing the wheel out would give more clearance to the frame I would think.

 

The frame rub is with no spacers. With spacers on you eliminate the frame rub but push the wheel out that you rip the fender flares off and rub around the body mount
