Method MR704 HD 17x9 18mm Offset 8x6.5 130.81mm CB Titanium Wheel for 1973-1993 Dodge Ram, 1973-1979 Ford F250/F350, 1973-1987 Chevy C/K Trucks
The Method MR704 HD wheel delivers race-bred strength in a 17x9 size with +18mm offset for classic trucks including 1973-1993 Dodge Ram 2500/3500, 1973-1979 Ford F250/F350, and 1973-1987 Chevy/GMC C/K series. Bead Grip technology locks tire beads at low pressures to prevent debeading during aggressive off-road use. This cast aluminum wheel combines precise fitment with titanium finish for long-lasting performance on trails and streets.
Key Features
- Bead Grip Technology: Patented inner ring design boosts tire bead retention by up to 22 percent at low PSI, enabling safer low-pressure off-roading without a true beadlock.
- 17x9 Size with +18mm Offset: Provides wide stance for stability and clearance for 35-inch plus tires on lifted classic trucks.
- 8x6.5 Bolt Pattern: Direct bolt-on for older heavy-duty trucks, ensuring secure hub-to-wheel connection without adapters.
- 130.81mm Center Bore: Hubcentric fit reduces vibration and evenly distributes load for smoother highway drives and trail runs.
- Titanium Finish: Multi-layer metallic coating resists corrosion, chips, and UV damage for enduring appearance in harsh environments.
Product Notes
- Wheel weight is 35.2 lbs for balanced handling and reduced unsprung mass.
- Clean with mild soap and soft brush. avoid harsh chemicals to preserve finish.
- Ships freight or ground as oversize item. inspect for damage upon arrival.
Installation Notes
- Professional installation recommended.
- Torque lug nuts to 140-150 ft-lbs in star pattern after 50-100 miles.
- Uses 14x1.5 conical seat lug nuts. verify vehicle hub lip compatibility.
