Anyone have these wheels below? If so, what centercaps are you using and where did you get them? Hole is 3.25", thanks

Edit: Im guessing these will work. Need a set of 4 cheaper though :wink:

I've got 4 lugs on mine :[ Stockers on front, widened "stockers" on the back.

If I had 5 lugs, my first choice would be jackmans, second choice would be BTR

Running methods on my baja. Not to expensive and look pretty good.

Thanks for the comments.

I paid 140.00 a rim over a year ago. Dont get me wrong thats still a good amount of money but compared to a centerline or BTR thats not too bad and your getting a great product. I dont have a lot of money so I just bought 1 rim at a time. helps ease the pain of dropping the full amount for 4 rims.

I agree, that IS a lot of money, BUT not compared to what it could be.
Where did you get them?

Luco13...are those the Method Standard model rims? I'm diggin' those and might buy a set too.

These are the buggy Non Beadlock model wheels. Im currently running them with a 5 to 4 lug adapter until I get my new brakes on.

I picked them up from Fibertech in Santee. I just searched around and see they are going for 159.00 now. Not much more but still a good deal.

Porsche 356 rims in the front. The rears are 8 inch wide rims VW made by Custom and Commercial with a 5 inch negative offset.
