Best wheels for Raptor

[FarmersFight]

I like my fuel 20in. wheels with quiet Nitto Ridge Grappler tires supported by 2in. Readylift suspension kit

Agreed. Have this same setup. 35” Nitto Ridge Grapplers with 20” Fuel Covert wheels. Works for me, as mine is primarily a pavement princess. Not sure I would want this same setup if I were gonna be off-roading much though.

Vote for Fuel Wheels! Great for off-roading.

The OEM beadlocks are built in china too. Innov8 gets my vote too if you have $$ or don't mind spending the $$. And the new Innov8 17x8.5 +25 is very close to the stock fitment.

But bang for buck, I can agree on Method. The Trail Series wheels in particular are pretty awesome. The bead grip technology works really well without hassle of beadlocks.

True on all fronts!! I have 17” Bronze MR701’s on 3 trucks!! Call me thematic! Hah!

I should also add that the Methods “good looking China wheel” works great as well. No knock to Method. If they were made here, that would be awesome, and I’d pay the premium, but I completely understand why the are not.

Cheers to Innov8, and perhaps one day I’ll take the plunge!

depends on your use as well. Baja desert, daily, etc. Figure your wheel and tire size desire, then find the look you want. Methods and Raptors are pretty standard. Check https://www.innov8racing.com/ for a more capable wheel.

Why do you say that is a better wheel? They are pretty heavy for an expensive wheel.

Any thoughts on the Black Rhino Duggers?

Im really trying to find them OEM 2020 bead-locks just no one is selling them in Dallas area or Ford was asking some $1600 a wheel and I laughed on the phone when I heard that even the Ford Rep said whattttttttt that cant be but he checked 3 times and asked 2 different people.

Just bought a set of factory bead locks off of a 2020 for my 2020. Keep looking on OfferUp and Craigslist. I have seen them as low as 1200 for 4 wheels with worn tires and no pressure sensors and up from there. 1800~2200 with good tires and pressure sensors.

Replaced my factory beadlocks this week. Method 315’s with black hardware, Eibachs, Deaver +3HD. Have to see them in person to see how impressive these things look on the truck. First time post too! Longtime member, finally had something to share

My Methods on my Gen 1 turned a grayish color after only two years. The finish looked dull almost right away, and then they looked worse and worse. I sold them with the truck and the new owner immediately replaced them because of how bad they looked.

The Fuels on my Gen 2 have lasted more than three years and they still look the same as when I bought them. I like the Fuels enough that I just installed a set of 17x9 Zephyrs on my 2021 Tremor.
