Anyone know what wheels and tire size these might be? Sizing looks awesome.
So far so good. I had a bad experience with the 1st shop that painted them. Make sure you are on the same page with them on what level of quality you are paying for, before going ahead.Hey, that looks great. How do you like the flares? I am on the fence. They look good.

Thanks for sharing!Anyone know what wheels and tire size these might be? Sizing looks awesome.
so I just went with the Method Standards 17X7.5 6X130 6.2BS -50OS p/n MRWMR30177563550 (50mm offset) with the Yokohama Geolandar LT265/70R17 M/T 003’s. Everything fit nicely including the spare without modification of the spare bracket.2017 4x4 170 here. I’d like to upgrade the wheel package for most of the same reasons everyone else does. My question is if I go to a 17 - 7.5 rim to allow for 265/70R 17 tires do I need to order them with offset and if so how much? Would the offset change if it was a 17 -8” rim? Looking at Yokohama Geolandar M/T G003 if anyone has experience or disparaging comments related to this tire as well...
Thanks:

Have you gotten a hold of Roma built. I want these wheels too. I expect it might be possible to get them direct from Hutchinson especially if it was more than 1 set. Anyone else on here interested in a set of the g wagon double beadlocks in a 6x130?Those look like hutchinson rock monster beedlocks. Roam built sells them in the 6x130 pattern. I'd guess around $750/wheel. These are true beedlocks vs the beedLOOK wheels that roam built typically sells. If we upgrade wheels, this is what we're getting.

My brother just installed 255/80R16 BFG MTs on his 2016 170 4x4. No rubs and no mods to fender well, but a little louder than the stock Contis.There are quite a few options for 255/80R17 tires (33), anyone running that size?

I await the same response. I can feel the wheel move in and out of my tires due to sidewall flexing when a strong cross wind hits the side of the van. I would happily give up the perceived off-road ability of that tall sidewall for more stability on the road. There are times when my front tires roll onto the sidewalls around sharp curves at speed to the point I'm bracing for the bead to break loose.Anyone running 20in rims?! I ask because I recently came across a new custom set of 4 with new tires. My little bit of research tells me they are not recommended to ill-advised. But they indeed exist and are available.
I think the offset is different between the aluminum and steel 16" OEM wheels - I believe the aluminum puts the rubber closer to the strut & wheel-well...How bad is it to run a 265/75/16 or a 285/75/16 on a stock 6.5 inch aluminum rim ?
I'm running 265 x 75 x 16 Cooper's. No issues what so ever. Speedometer runs about 3 mph slower at 65.How bad is it to run a 265/75/16 or a 285/75/16 on a stock 6.5 inch aluminum rim ?
