Default Method Race Wheels

So ive pretty much had my heart set on the 301 Standards machined for my truck. Only problem is that they dont make them 5x135. I was told I can have the lug holes on the wheels drilled larger with sleeves pressed in on a 5x5.5 and it will fit my bolt pattern. Anyone ever done this?

With so many 5x135 options..why would you even bother messing with them?

I really like the look of those wheels. Nothing else really stands out like those to me

They can custom drill the holes to that size. They are going to make my 7x150 pattern in their Standard style.

Look at the Fuel Trophy wheels. I think they are similar and may come in what you need.

just got an email back from them, they also gave me an option for their new NV wheel. They said i can go with 17" since my truck is an F-250 Light Duty and it has a 7200 GVWR so i need a strong wheel. For sure they can do any size though. Basically just add $160 to the 4 wheels you want and that is the price you will pay. It costs $40 each wheel to have them custom drilled.

The guy I talked to said they rarely get 16" blanks and made it sound like I had no other option other than redrilling a chevy wheel. So idk if I cant find a shop out here ill prob try to find something else I like. Which sucks!

I would say if you are dead set on Method then tell them and flash that cash. If you are ready to buy right now i do not see any reason why they can not at least have your name on a set of 16" blanks when they come in.
