Upgrade your Jeep J20 with the Method Race Wheels 305 NV Series, featuring a striking machined aluminum face, matte black lip, and classic off-road styling. With its distinctive 12-window design and simulated beadlock appearance, this wheel combines rugged construction with a clean, aggressive look for your Full Size Jeep truck.

Manufactured from A356 aluminum with T6 heat treatment, the Method 305 NV features durable one-piece construction and an impressive 3,640 lb. load rating per wheel. The machined aluminum face contrasts with the matte black wheel openings and outer lip, while recessed METHOD lettering and gold-toned zinc-plated hardware complete the design.

Street-Loc Styling – Beadlock Appearance Without the Beadlock

The Method 305 features the Street-Loc V.1 lip, with an undercut outer edge that recreates the aggressive appearance of a genuine beadlock wheel. Replaceable gold-toned lip bolts complete the look, with optional hardware colors available for customization.

Unlike genuine beadlock wheels, the Method 305 NV uses conventional tire mounting without an external beadlock ring. This provides the appearance of a beadlock wheel without the additional assembly and maintenance required by true beadlock designs, making it a practical choice for both highway driving and off-road use.

Designed for 8-Lug Jeep J20 Trucks

This 17x8.5-inch wheel features the 8x6.5-inch bolt pattern used on factory Jeep J20 trucks, along with a 0mm offset, 4.75-inch backspacing, and approximately 131mm center bore.

The heavy-duty 3,640 lb. load rating and reinforced aluminum construction make this an excellent option for J20 owners looking to replace their original steel wheels with a modern aftermarket design.

Method backs the 305 NV with a limited lifetime structural warranty, subject to manufacturer warranty terms.

Sold individually. Includes one wheel and METHOD center cap. Tires, lug nuts, and valve stems are not included.

Fitment Notes

Designed for Jeep J20 trucks equipped with factory 8x6.5-inch (8x165.1mm) wheel bolt patterns. Bolt pattern compatibility alone does not guarantee complete vehicle fitment.

The 4.75-inch backspacing and 0mm offset may differ from your original factory wheels. Verify clearance around steering linkage, suspension, brakes, and inner fenders before ordering.

The approximately 131mm center bore must clear the factory hubs. The included push-through center cap may not fit over protruding front hubs or manual locking hubs.

Requires small-diameter lug nuts with a 60-degree conical seat. Original factory lug nuts may not have the correct seating design. Lug nuts are sold separately.

The 3,640 lb. load rating is the wheel's individual capacity and does not increase the vehicle's factory GVWR or axle ratings.

Does not fit factory 6-lug J10 trucks, Wagoneers, Grand Wagoneers, or Cherokee SJ models without axle modifications.

Fits:

• 1974–1988 J20 Trucks — Factory 8-Lug Axles; Wheel, Hub, and Steering Clearance Verification Required
