Hey @Pacific Wheel what would 17x8.5 +25 look like? If I'm understanding correctly, they would be about .350" out from stock, yeah? Do you know how much of a difference adding perch collars would make?

I'm looking for new wheels for my '21, but I'm not planning to raise the front until I need new tires. I'm kind of torn on the amount of "poke" that I want (definitely no more than +0). I don't want to be in a position where if I raise the front end down the line, I feel like I need new wheels because the collars pulled them in more than stock.

Any thoughts or advice would be great! Thanks!

perch collars dont change the wheels at all - pick a wheel you like and go with it. The perch only changes the front height. Only reason for perch/collars is it you want to level or wanting to squeeze 37's that are not BFG k02's.

Hey @LennyMoe @Qcfx2 is correct. It really just comes down to looks. Below is a pic of a +00. The +25 is very close to a stock fitment.

Thanks for the info! @Pacific Wheel Do you know if these +00 methods will have any issues tucking under the fender flares at full compression? I have a 37pp on order and didn’t want to add perch collars. I’ll be using the stock ko2’s. I don’t mind a little trimming to clear for turning angles, but not tearing up fenders during landings is important to me.

I'm not certain. I haven't had anyone say anything. Plenty of orders for them but now sure what they're doing with their trucks. I might stick with a +25 if you plan some full compression action.

Do you happen to have a similar shot with +25, I know it's basically only 10mm more than OEM wheels outward. I'm looking at the Method 315 in +0 but also concerned with possible rubbing under full compression or actually being used off-road. I've read +0 can be a problem some on Gen2 but the Gen3 has more room so haven't found a clear answer on that.
