Question Wheel choice help

Narrowed it down to two choices, not sure if i want to go for the off road raptor look with the Methods, or the typical deep(ish) lip look with the Hostiles. Help me decide!

Methods-
https://www.customwheeloffset.com/bu...s=Black%20Lugs

Hostiles-

Any input of pictures of said setups on a 12th gen would be much appreciated!

Looked like Method was 0 offset while Hostile was -19. Depending on lift and size of tires, I'd think the Hostile wheels would have a higher chance of rubbing. Just an observation. I voted for the Method wheels anyways. Prefer smaller wheels.

It's hard to say both look great, but from a cleaning perspective the Hostiles.

I appreciate the input, I'm completely torn, I've seen the machined look from the factory FX4 wheels against the Ingot Silver for a few years now and definitely like the look, thus the methods. But I'm thinking a fresh change might not be a bad thing either. If I go with the hostiles i have a much bigger chance of scuffing a rim up here in northern New Hampshire, but changing a tire off the bead lock methods would be a bitch.

Im a big fan of the hostiles and will be ordering a set in chrome when they come into stock. the hostile will stick out a lot due to the offset and width of the rim. With a leveling kit you can fit a 33x12.5r20 with a 20x10 -19

Default It is decided

I appreciate the input from everyone. Ended up ordering Method Double standards 17x8.5 black with a machined lip & 35x12.5 Nitto Ridge grapplers. Hopefully will have them in a couple weeks with pictures to follow.

Hostile would get my vote.
