Otherwise are others thinking of purchasing. Currently $570 each and about 2 month wait. If a few of us are interested it might be cheaper as a group purchase.

I have also been considering the Method 305 NV HD 17" x 8.5 which are rated at 1651kg and would be keen to hear if anyone is currently using them. It appears Method only offer this size in 0 Offset so would be interested if someone can confirm no clearance issues.
Cheers
Mark

The zero offset will fit if you have the HD knuckles but nobody seemed too sure re the standard knuckles.

Ian Jones sells 16"x 9" zero offset steel rims to suit the 325/85R15 tyres and they fit so these should be OK. (I have a set for sale with tyres if anyone feels inclined).

No chance to try fitment yet, as I need to find lug nuts (wheel nuts).
(I suspect an 8" wide rim would need -12 to -20 to clear the steering gizmos, but maybe the extra inch in diameter would help?.)

Yep… for race car rims one can get forged, but I have found nothing in forged rims for trucks other than duallie Alcoa rims.
It is 3420 pounds for the Raceline “rock crusher”.
