Besides Method wheels what are other good wheel companies???

[jordantii]

This is my first off road vehicle, RR, and I don't like the +55 offset and the weight of the stock wheels. I am interested in a new set of wheels. I know Method is a go to brand and they have their "Bead Grip" tech on some of their wheels. With Method our choices are q bit limited. So what are the other brands out there that you guys are running?

Try KMC or Relations Race Wheels

Coming from the jeep world, a lot will swear by the teraflex wheels, not my style but they’ve got a good system to keep beads.

Coming from the wheel industry from many years I have seen so many wheel brands come and go. These days more new wheel companies are popping up. Mostly made in China or Taiwan. I have found JDM/German wheels are usually the best quality but have a heavier price. BBS actually just released a new off-road line at a great value. The offsets are a bit aggressive though. I have found when buying wheels in the truck market there's not many unique or custom options. Just my opinion.

Wheel brands I looked at when buying that I thought had good value and light weight.
Titan-7
Enkei RPT1
Work Meister Wheels
HRE Flowform
Raceline
SSW Offroad
Stealth Customs
Method

Pretty happy with all the Black Rihno I have owned.

I have vision wheels and my wife has American outlaw wheels.

Enkei makes a lot of oem wheels for companies. They are nice light wheels

Fuel makes a lot of styles. I have the beasts in 20 mm offset and love em.

I quite like my RTR Evo 6 and it actually looks like they are in stock.

You don't like the weight? Do you have the bead lock ones, because the regular wheels are some of the lighter ones I've seen. They weigh less than most Methods.

I like the RTR's aesthetically, but I don't think they would hold up to my uses off-road. I had RTR Tech 7's on my 2016 GT and loved them, but they have a thinner spoke design and the lateral loads in off-roading can be quite brutal and as mentioned, the bead grip is really another area that Method shines.

Plus I really like how easy the 705's are to clean up, the more complex spoke geometries tend to hold dirt / mud a lot more and don't wash off as easily. I was pleasantly surprised as how the simple radiused spokes cleaned right up on my 705's. My OE beadlocks were a PITA after going to an OHV park last year, but it all depends on your use cases!

Personally, on trucks, I like a simple rugged look, and I think the 705's for me, with their trapezoid spoke cut out design, fit well with the down to business boxy-ish styling on the RR. Cause I do stuff that makes my truck look like this quite often (that stuff is like cement once it dries out!):

Also be careful with very larger off-sets, the more off-set you go, the more your scrub radius is going to be affected. Too much scrub and you will ruin the off-road handling as you will be wrestling the steering wheel every time you hit a bump or puddle!

The optimal offset aside from stock is +35 to + 40 range for larger tires. Black Rhino, Method and a few others have ET35's.

I come from the jdm scene the last sets of wheels I ran were enkei, J line,Advan and now on the RR I went with Cobb and love them.

9 and 3 wheels.
Forged and available in whatever backspacing you would like.
I bought their 17-in wheel and 35 in by 17 x11.5 Toyo AT3 and I'm the same way as a stock wheel and tire.

I think you're probably overthinking this a bit. Lateral loads in a lower-traction truck tire are nowhere near what a sticky sports car tire on a grippy track surface produce.

Also who do you think makes RTR wheels for Vaughn
