Was about to pull the trigger on Method NVs when suddenly....

Like this but smaller in diameter and they wouldn't be as thick. The flat ones will be easier and cheaper to make. A replica of the stock cap with a flat top has a lot more curves and dimensions so it would be harder to create

I think I like the look of the stock cap a bit more honestly. The design of it reminds of the centerlock wheels on the upper tier Porsche 911s. It would be cool if you could find a way to recreate that look with the hub centric cap.

These wheels are hub centric. So it will have to be a decorative bolt on style cap. I do agree there needs to be more dimension to the cap. The flat one is a bit plain. It was just an extra Fuel cap I had sitting around. I'll think of something, it's still early. I just don't want the price to get out of hand either.

Thank you for correcting me. I just assumed they were not hub centric like other Method wheels.

Just got mine today. Hopefully get installed tomorrow. I'll post them up when they're on.

Definitely post up some pics when they're on. We have the same truck and I wanna see how they look on white. I'm really not digging the bronze finish personally. I'm already thinking about selling them based on the color alone.

Got them installed late so sorry for the gas station photos but best light I could find. I love the look of it. Pictures don't do it justice.

Thanks for the pictures. Looking forward to seeing more from further away in the daylight!

Thanks for posting pics. They do look better with a tire wrapped around them but I can't get over the olive brown tone. I see powder coating in my near future

It looks to me that all you need is a small disk, with some logo, that pushes in prom the back?
