Method wheel help

[Jgwalt27]

Hey All,
New here and hoping for some assistance with a wheel size decision I am trying to make. I have a 2022 f150 platinum and I just picked up the Bilstein stage 2 6112/5160 leveling kit + Icon UCAs. I am not trying to decide between 17” and 18” Method 309’s. I am hoping to see if anyone has photos of these set ups for comparison. However any 17” vs 18” photos would be great!

Not that it matters, but I’m leaning 18” with 295/70r18 bfg’s

any guidance here would be awesome

2022 Plat Max Tow Powerboost with Bilstein/Ford Performance kit at 2 inch mark.

17s don't fit as I have max tow. Prefer the 18s.

285/75/18 on Method 316 +12s. LIttle bit of chopping needed on the plastic trim.

I prefer more tire than wheel for my application (quite a bit of off roading).

Method 316’s in 17x8.5, 0 offset.

17s with 285/75R17!

@SpaceWhiteF150 thanks for the reply, good looking truck! Was 285 limited by rubbing, wheel size, or preference?

@mxwrk, thanks for sharing. Big fan of the wheel choice. Can you confirm what tire size you are running?

Good size and light weight tire! It equates to about 34 by 11.3. You could do 305/70R17 if you wanted wider! The 305s will prob rub!

Here is a thread on my switch from a 17 to an 18. A bit different than the sizes you're looking for, but maybe it'll help!

17 looks better imo. We're still debating between 316 method wheels or Impact kmc wheels when we schedule the next tire change.
