Moved them to my 21 Mojave with 35" Bridgestone but currently looking for new rims as not really feeling these with the Snazberry and they stick out about 2" and throw crap everywhere:

Wish you were closer, I’d buy them from you. Are they the 5.2” backspace with the +11mm offset?
Do you have a front shot so that we can see the poke?

4.75" backspacing, -6 offsset. I do like the stance, but I live way out in the country, most homes have a dirt or gravel driveway and everytime it rains, I'm slinging mud all over the truck. And, if I actually go offroad, it's a bit ridiculous :)
The RokBlokz have helped tremendously, but still get some spray down the side. I'll try to get a close up pic later today inc ase you're looking at getting a set:

I also am drawn to these rims and about to hit purchase.. I going with the Ridge Grappler's, 315/70/17, since on the stock Rubicon (extra 2" lift above stock) and these Dirty Harry's but trying to decide on the offset of 0 or 18 on my Rubicon JL. The 18 offset seems to be a little too little since the stock offset is at 44mm, so tires stock out 1" more; while the 0 offset (44-18 = 26mm or 1 inch / 44-0= 44 or 1.7 inches) seems like they would stick enough (just under 2 inches / 1.7") to change the stance to 'beefy' but not crazy? I live in Lake Tahoe, Nevada so not worried about tires outside fender's... everyone here hits the desert and the rubicon trail. Afraid I am 'old man style' and sticking with black wheels since I have Granite Crystal Metallic color and the grey inset on these wheels are too light of a grey (wish they had darker gunmetal grey for these wheels, that would be perfect, gunmetal grey 6-shooter wheel - with the 44mag inserts) for me... hahaha

1. Do you like the rims and how rugged are they off-road?
2. Which offset would go with?
3. How are Ridge Grapplers in the snow, curious since they 'are' mountain snowflake rated?
4. Do I have to pay attention to any backspacing issues/numbers?
5. Will standard spare tire mont support the 35" tire and rim, will it stick out with a new '0 offset' wheel, 1.7 inches out?

Only if that was a Sting Gray Gladiator. I have been eyeing those rims for some point down the road, just not sure which color to go with my Sting Gray truck.

Pondering a set of these wheels, how well have they held up? Any issues and would you buy them again. Thanks
Hey, I bought these in part because of the price, most of my off-road is mud and sand, they have virtually no wear on them, look the same as when I installed them. Probably would be a different story rock climbing, but that’s most wheels….. yes, I would buy them again. Good luck

@antwon412, thank you for the shout out. The Method wheels look great on your super clean truck.
antwon412 - I think they just called you out as a mall crawler with that "super clean truck" comment! LOL :giggle:
