Method calls that color Bahia Blue. That color is not available with the hub centric Ford Performance Methods.

I’ve gotta admit, that color wheel looks real good on Azure Grey.

It's definitely a nice color. I was just pointing out that the wheel in the photo isn't available as an option with the FP Methods.

Yeah, I ordered "titanium" and that's what showed up. 20 k miles later, no problems.

The FP Method wheel looks fantastic. I wish they had gone with a +10 or +12 offset. I think they would sell a lot more of them.

Since they are marketing as an OEM wheel, I assume Ford wanted (or had to) keep certain engineering specs such as offset (no poke) and hub centric.

Bought these a year ago... I wanted the "no poke" offset, and these checked that box. The weight savings was a plus as well! I haven't noticed much of a fuel mileage increase... but I do have a bit of a lead foot.
Mine didn't come with the Ford center caps... bummer.

I read it as 1 set of 4 for $60. If I am wrong, it’s going back. No way I am paying 240 skins for 4 wheels.

Note they are 60 skins EACH. WTF?

When looking at wheels to replace the overly heavy OEM SAS I'm looking at 3 criteria mostly:

1) weight
2) price
3) offset - not interested in poke/scrub so I want OEM offset or close so +25 or greater

#3 is the hardest. There just is not that much out there. RRW will occasionally have some wheels in stock that are < 25 lbs and with +25 offset. RTR has the Evo 6 in +30 offset that is < 23 lbs, and of course these Methods.

Any other offerings in something with positive offset (ideally +25 or >)besides these 3 that folks have purchased or seen?

Edit: I see that Black Rhino has their Rapid wheel in a +12 offset (and 23lbs)...I seem to recall someone here saying they had Black Rhino wheels in a +35 offset but I can't find the post in this thread or another...I'm probably misremembering.

On the bright side, the market for those SAS takeoffs is pretty robust, so you can offset some of the cost for your upgrade. I think the older beadlock capable rims look much better than the newer everglades style SAS rims.

So I've been looking at a couple options that come close to your requirements (not sure about price though):

• Black Rhino Etosha 17x8.5 +20 (24.6 lbs)
• Method MR316 17x8 +25 (~25 lbs)

I also like the look of the RRW wheels but they only seem to have black/bronze. SCS makes some really light wheels if you're into the no center cap Toyota look.

has anyone tried to see if the faux hub lock center caps will fit a sasquatch wheel?
I really like the look of them & adding just a touch of bronze, but I'm hesitant to spend the money & "hope' they'll fit

Azure Gray and Bronze.

Do you have any issues with the FP Method wheels on the Wildtrak? Any rubbing or clearance issues? I am looking at these wheels with MT Baja Boss ATs 35x12.5-17. With the wheels being +35 offset, I am wanting to verify that there are no issues with them.

I have a 24 Wildtrak, Azure, Stock suspension. I don't want to go to the 0 offset and poke them out.

Thanks

I bought my Methods because they are 10 lbs lighter per corner than the stock Wildtrak wheels. My Micky Thomsons are 20 lbs heavier per corner. I only gained 10 lbs net per corner to get true 35/12.50s. The Methods are blue and no kind of Titanium like they said. lol

Are your wheels 0 or +35 offset? Do you have any issues with the FP Method wheels on the Wildtrak? Any rubbing or clearance issues? I am looking at these wheels with MT Baja Boss ATs 35x12.5-17. With the wheels being +35 offset, I am wanting to verify that there are no issues with them.
