Why do nearly all of the aftermarket wheels have such crappy offsets? I assume it's to give a "normal" truck a wider stance by pushing the wheel and tire out?

On the Raptor, it just puts the tire that much closer to hitting the fender/flares and kicks up more shit onto the side of the truck.

My truck should land in a coupla days...really wanted the rotiforms but they don't look available yet, and the fuel 570 rotors seem to be mia. I'm gonna do the 17x8.5 kmc machete for now with the 0 offset. Truck will leave the dealer with them on and I'll post em up asap.

We deal with a few companies that make wheels in higher offsets. XD actually does one of their wheels in the factory offset. Unfortunately Method only does a +00 in the 17's. They do however offer a +18 in the 18" sizes. Shoot me a PM if you want some options.

Probably a dumb question and This has probably been asked but do you know what the stock offset is? Or Is That what zero offset is?

Have you actually received them yet? Method told us they wouldn't be arriving till late Jan early Feb

I haven't. I was told that they would be available in Jan. I pre-ordered them, so I could get them on my Raptor as quickly as possible.

I just called Method. They haven't finished them yet, but expect them to ship at the end of Jan.

Any thought on these for a black screw. I am not a fan of the stock wheels. I did not get the bead locks. I also want to stay away from chrome but don't want completely blacked out wheels either. I think there needs to be some contrast. Any opinions appreciated. [emoji1417]
