Toss me a PM with a price on the NV's shipped to 15237.
Let me know how much you're paying for mount/balance, just curious. I'll hopefully be getting mine done sometime next week
I'm not selling them separate, it'll be the NV's already mounted & balanced on my factory BFG's with about 10-15k worth of tread left, TPMS still installed. Shipping would probably kill the worthwhileness of the deal.
@Reptar It was about $115 for mounting, balancing, and new valve stems. Replacing the valves stems attached to the TPMS sensor isn't required, but recommended. I figured it was better to do now while everything was apart than to wait and see if I have problems later. This was my first tire swap. Had close to 48k on the original KO's. I had this done at my nearest Discount tire. They seemed to do a decent job as far as not trying to destroy the wheel studs and using a torque wrench to check tightness at the end. It didn't hurt that I watched them the whole time and had my own torque wrench to confirm shortly after that everything was snugged down to 150 ft-lbs. The KO2's seemed to balance well. No vibration or anything off after install. After getting home, I let my tires cool off for a while prior to adjusting the air pressure to the recommended 44 PSI. Basically, so good so far. It's going to be raining this week here so hopefully I experience better wet traction with these.
Thanks. I got new TPMS's so I can just drop off new wheels, new tires, and new TPMSs to get them all mounted/balanced, then I'll swap them onto the truck later, and sell my set of methods/tpms/factory bfg's as a complete set.
Not looking forward to tire shop shopping lol, most around here are terrible

Wish you were closer. Still looking at NVs but I just bought another daily driver. Hard to pull he trigger on another literal set of wheels.

I'm new to buying wheels.... I'd want the 17x8.5, 0 offset and 6x135...right?
I just got Bronze Method Roosts (MR30878516900) off Amazon for $144 per wheel. I also had a $75 gift card balance which means my total was $501 for four wheels with free 2-day shipping. I'm waiting to see if Amazon cancels this order since they briefly had two listings on their site at two different prices. The "normal" listing shows $197 per wheel. In fact, if I select the item from my order it takes me to the higher priced listing even though my order invoice shows a unit price of $144. My order is currently processing with expected delivery of this Wednesday. I wasn't even planning on buying wheels, but if this price works then I'd be stupid not to.
For @Reptar or any of the other guys with these wheels, did you leave the bolt on center rings attached to the wheel when the tire shop did the balancing or should they be removed prior to balancing? I just finished color matching the rings to the Raptor flare color. I just wanted to make sure that the rings didn't get damaged etc. I hope to be able to stop by Discount Tire on Monday.
Was going to get all of this done on Friday, but Method mispacked a black wheel in a box labeled for a bronze wheel. Luckily, a quick Amazon chat led to a return shipping label and priority overnight shipping for the replacement wheel. The wheel came around noon today and I immediately painted the center ring Metallic Flat Soft Iron to match the previously painted rings. Only lame thing is that they didn't include the factory box for the replacement and just shipped it in a plain brown box with the packing material thrown in. Wheel seemed fine though and Method has a two year warranty so whatever.
