Depends on tire size, but I'd say +18 is more likely to rub on stock radius arms. And a 0 offset is more likely to rub on the plastics and whatnot at the rear of your inner fenders.

typically the lower offset (pushes wheel out from suspension) the increased risk of rubbing on bumper and fender.
the higher the offset, the increased chance of rubbing on the suspension, mainly the radius arms and sway bar.
also the width of the wheel plays a part. generally, the wider the wheel, the increased risk of rubbing

a +18-20 with a 12.5 wide tire is usually the best bet, an 11.5 is better, a 13.5 increases the risk of rub

Did you ever wind up getting these installed? If so, any pics?

I have a set ceramic coated with 285/75 Duratracs mounted but they're not installed yet - I can't wait til spring when the winters come off.

I love the design. No frills and 8 spoke/8 lug pleases my inner engineer.

Torn between 704HD in 35/37x12.50r17, 701 in 35/37x12.50r18, and the NVs in 295/65r20.

really having a tough time finding many pics of the 701/704s. Anyone here have them (besides the few that already posted)?

Made the switch today. Couldn’t find any decent pictures of the wheels I really wanted and felt a 17” wheel would look off to me personally. 20” Method NV with 37x12.50r20 Ridge Grapplers.

truck feels a bit “floaty” for some reason. Assume it’s just because the tech put 70psi in each tire.

Also no rub as far as I can tell. Definitely feel the change in shift points with the larger tires. Wouldn’t mind getting it calibrated for correct speed but don’t want a CEL on all the time.

I like those. Snazzy, but not too flashy.

Does anyone know if method or any company makes a 17x9 wheel with a +12mm offset and 4.75” back spacing that is compatible with a 250 super duty (8x170) bolt pattern?

You're right. I was thinking about the 605NV when I posted. The 605 and 305 are crazy similar. Looks like the only difference is the deep dish on the 605?
