Give your Full Size Jeep serious off-road capability with the Method Race Wheels 106 Series, featuring genuine beadlock construction, a rugged bronze finish, and an aggressive 6-window design. Built for rock crawling, challenging trails, and demanding off-road conditions, this wheel combines heavy-duty construction with the ability to run reduced tire pressures for improved traction.
Manufactured from A356 aluminum with T6 heat treatment, the Method 106 features a reinforced inner lip and a forged 6061 aluminum V.3 beadlock ring. The updated ring is 53% thicker to help reduce deflection, while the 17% wider bead seat accommodates larger off-road tires.
The distinctive 6-window design features recessed METHOD lettering, a matte bronze wheel finish, contrasting black beadlock ring, and gold-toned zinc-plated hardware. A bolt-on METHOD center cap completes the rugged appearance.
Genuine Beadlock Construction for Serious Off-Road Use
Unlike simulated beadlock wheels, the Method 106 uses a forged aluminum ring that mechanically clamps the tire's outer bead against the wheel. This helps prevent the tire from separating from the rim when running reduced air pressure for increased traction on rocks, sand, and uneven terrain.
The V.3 beadlock design features recessed mounting hardware with 360-degree protection to help prevent damage or shearing of bolt heads during off-road use. Additional threaded mounting holes provide redundancy for servicing the beadlock ring.
Built for Strength and Durability
With a 3,600 lb. load rating per wheel, reinforced aluminum construction, and Grade 8 beadlock hardware, the Method 106 is engineered for demanding off-road applications.
This 17x9-inch wheel features the 6x5.5-inch bolt pattern found on many Wagoneer, Grand Wagoneer, Cherokee SJ, and J10 trucks. The -44mm offset and 3.50-inch backspacing create a wider, more aggressive wheel stance, making it particularly appealing for lifted Jeeps, wide-track Cherokees, and custom off-road builds.
Proper tire, steering, suspension, and fender clearance must be verified before installation.
IMPORTANT: Genuine beadlock wheel intended for off-road use only. Not intended for public-highway use. Proper beadlock assembly, hardware torque, and periodic inspections are required.
Sold individually. Includes one wheel, forged beadlock ring, Grade 8 mounting hardware, and METHOD center cap. Tire, lug nuts, and valve stem are not included.
Fitment Notes
Designed for Full Size Jeeps equipped with factory 6x5.5-inch (6x139.7mm) wheel bolt patterns. Bolt pattern compatibility alone does not guarantee complete vehicle fitment.
The -44mm offset and 3.50-inch backspacing move the wheel farther outward than many factory wheel configurations. Depending on tire size and suspension setup, the wheel and tire may extend beyond the factory fenders.
Verify clearance around steering components, suspension, brakes, and inner fenders, including clearance during full steering turns and suspension compression.
Verify the wheel's center bore against your factory hubs before ordering. Front locking hubs and other protruding factory hub components may interfere with the wheel or included bolt-on center cap.
Requires small-diameter lug nuts with a 60-degree conical seat. Lug nuts are sold separately.
Does not fit factory 8-lug J20 trucks or earlier 5-lug Full Size Jeeps.
