The Method Roost is hub-centric. It's one of the few Method wheels with a cast diameter equal to our hubs.
I'm still waiting on delivery of the other two wheels from Discount Tire Direct - scheduled for this evening. I called DTD and ordered via the phone with a good discount. They don't list or show the Roosts but they can get them.
It's not Wed. yet. At least not in Houston. The wheel on a box image actually came out OK I thought too. I'm thinking once mounted up I may be a little disappointed with the lack of aggressiveness with stock tires. That'll eventually change when these tires wear out.
No plans for my stock beadlook SE wheels, but eventually one set of either the Ford or Method wheels will be up for sale.

Wheels installed!

Ok, the Method Roost Bronze are installed. I've still got the stock aluminum open caps that need to change out to a black cover, but you'll get the idea of the look.
First wheel/tire on, almost full droop...

Reverse rake since front is still jacked up a bit...looks killer like this to me...

Front wheel detail...

Wider stance looks good, except I need meaner tires now...

With center caps removed... a little better. Needs a cover honestly.

Looks better without that cap, but would look even better with the flush cap that @LEEHWCAP makes for these wheels. That would be the perfect touch.

I'll probably pull each wheel off and plastidip paint the hub itself black initially to see how that works before cutting a cover.

Yeah, I rattle can painted my hubs with a high temp rustoleum paint and it held up great. That would look good too.

Thanks brotha

I have them in stock. We could do a black anodize or transparent black top coat over brushed aluminum with bronze svt logos. I have the bronze wheels here so all I'd have to do is have my graphics guy come by with a swatch book and we could get something pretty close.

Now we're getting fancy! I like that idea. Black with bronze SVT logo. Or bronze entire cap with black SVT logo actually? It'd have to really match then so maybe not practical.

Yeah, I spent my fair share of time trying to match powder and it never turns out quite right. I'd definitely go black with bronze letters. The black will break it up just enough to the point where it won't matter if the bronze is slightly different. It'll look good with the black lugs too.
