Need help understanding wheels

[Socalbeachbum]

Thank you so much for the reply! What does the 6.10bs mean? How does that compare to the +25?

Here are two links that actually help you see how the tire size and offset will look mounted on a hub.

Not specific to a Raptor but it helps making it easier to understand. The second site will allow you to do side by side comparisons of offsets and all other sizes

I hope this helps, I found that it really helped me when setting up my last project. Much cheaper then buying and trying

Again, not Raptor specific but some general guidelines and with a little math be converted from the F150 to the Raptor.

What is the stock wheel size and offset on the non headlock wheels? I was looking at the Method 305 or Method 308 in bronze for my newly ordered Leadfoot Scab. I could also just get my stock wheels powder coated for about $300.

17x8.5 +34mm offset

17x8.5 +34mm offset

Thanks! I didn’t realize the offset was that high, most of the wheels I’ve seen are +25mm or 0mm. I want to keep the stock size tires and keep them tucked to protect the body. The 9mm move to the positive on a +25mm wheel would probably be fine.

I’m leaving towards the +25’s as well. Alphaequipt or the method 313’s seem to be the best option.

Looks like the only Methods available close to stock are the 310 at +35mm. I’m not 100% sold on the look compared to the stock wheels. The rest look to be +0 offset and will push the wheels out 1.4” from stock.

I took this picture when test driving a Scab on Thursday, I think the wheels could push out the 1.4”, but I don’t want to sling more crap up on the sides. I’m one of those guys who will be adding some kind of mud flaps (maybe Rally Armor or WeatherTech) to protect the body. I was pleased to see that the spare is on a matching rim, so buying 5 rims instead of 4 is also a factor. I plan on replacing my stock tires before 60% tread and move those to my Bronco that runs the same size. At that point I could cycle the fresh spare in and it wouldn’t be that old.

The method 313’s are also very close to stock at +25
