Finally got the methods wrapped in duratracs and put on the truck.

What size lift are you running, and what brand?

Rough Country 2.5", this with the 285/70 Duratracs on the 0 offset 17" Method NV's are very driveable. I tend to do about 40-60 miles a day and all I've noticed is a slight hum at highway speeds with the windows up and radio down or off. They're about as loud as my last car with summer only performance tires. Absolutely no rubbing.

Nice, I was thinking it was a 4in lift. Im putting the Method Nvs on my truck also but hopefully 33 mud grips on it with 4in lift. Truck looks good though man

Thanks! Everyone that see's the truck in person think it's a leveled 2500 at first glance. Next time (probably another 2-3yr's until I get a 6.2, I work for GM) I'll probably go with one of the prerunner style suspension systems with full coilovers and adjust it up (around 3.5") to use 35's while keeping that low COG look while gaining some ride and travel over what I have now. I love the way this truck performs but you always end up wanting to go bigger the next time around...

Had the same set up on my 14. Loved the look and it rode great.

Perfect daily set up.

Must be everyone ordering them after seeing how great they look on this fourm haha. What size and offset did you go with? Also curious as to where you ordered them from and best price you found. Thanks!

Whats up with the air dam? How did you make the lower finishing piece? Is it just a cut down stock piece? I never noticed that on your truck before...

I went with 17x8.5 +0 offset. $200 each, but the have $50 off a set of 4 right now and then $30 rebate I'd you use your Discount Tire card. So, $720 shipped after you factor those in.

As for tires, I'm sticking with Cooper ATPs again. 285/70/17. These are $207 each. However on ebay, in the Discount Tire Direct store, you get $100 off a $400+ purchase (ends today). So I bought 2 tires for $414 and got $100 off instantly, so it was $314. I did this 2 times (so $828 total reduced to $628). Plus Cooper has a $70 mail in rebate now, so $558 for the 4 tires shipped after all said and done.

I would have done the ebay deal on the wheels too, but they don't have any of the 17s listed in our pattern (probably because of the back order). But if you want 18 or 20 inch, you can do the 100 off 400 deal on those too.

Ya I havent seen very many people with anything smaller then 20s. Me personally I like an off road look, 20s look good with 35s and a 6in lift imo. Both trucks look awesome!

Thanks for the info! I saw the $100 off $400 as well and think I might use it for tires (Nitto TG). I have been kicking it around but about 2 weeks ago I added a set of 20" LRG 104's to my cart on a certain website to see the total, and they are running a buy 3 get 1 free deal right now. Plus my cart had a glitch and gave me an extra 20% off so the total for 4 20" Lrg's comes to $707 free shipping (normal price $1176). The only problem is they are 0 offset and I want to run the Nitto Terra Grappler 305-55-20XL since they are about the size I want but still 4 ply so the ride should still be good and keep the weight down.

I am close to pulling the trigger since its such a screaming deal on the wheels but the offset still has me a tad concerned with a 305 tire.

305 with a 0 offset will poke out a bit, it all depends on the look you're going for
