New Wheel Option

[Ro_Ja Boy]

There aren't many wheel options for the Bronco that are all that visually appealing to me, so for the time being am running the American Racing large hole wheels.

I talked to a number of companies about custom options and one company I spoke with, Titan 7 Wheels, said they could make a limited run of their new truck design forged wheels.

Just wondering if there's a level of interest. If so, would be happy to pass off to a vendor to manage.

I think they'd have to be 17", but offset and width can be decided as well as finish.

Those look very similar to Method wheels that are available in 5x5.5 pattern...?

Which ones? If there's something available, would love to not go through the process of finding others to want the same thing.

I want polished wheels so that's the other challenge I've had is finding wheels that dont have plastic centercaps that prevent me from having the centercaps and wheels match.

Found this thread. You're probably referring to the Standards which I dont think look as good, but may be an option for me. I like the other wheels in the thread better, but dont believe polished is an option on most of the Method wheels.

Go to their website. It shows 2 different 15" black wheels in 5x5.5",
5 different 17" machined finished wheels in 5x5.5", and 19 different
17" 5x5.5" in various colors...

Appreciate your help. And I can assume that any 5x5.5" wheel will work in terms of backspacing? I love these wheels (which come in 5x5.5" and could try powdercoating to polished), but had been told by the MFG they wouldn't fit.

Good call. These could be an option for me: https://www.methodracewheels.com/products/double-standard-machined-1

Thanks for the help!

You definitely need to check on backspacing. Your builder should be able to tell
you which size and offset will work with the brake package that they are using...

Not only offset, but center bore size. Lots of modern wheels are hub-centric which has the smaller hole that hugs the small hubs on modern trucks. Ours require a larger hole to go around the larger hub.

I inquired to Method and they said they'd fit. I'll report back down the road when I make a switch.

Backspacing

I inquired to Method and they said they'd fit. I'll report back down the road when I make a switch.

Yes, they said the would fit. 17" x 8.5" on 5 x 5.5...

But, they show a backspacing of 4.75" (they, didn't say they would Not Rub)

I have had 4-5 sets of Method Racing Wheels on Broncos. They Fit great!
