Very happy and zero buyers remorse. Pairs well with the KO3s. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Ooooooweeeeeeeee *by T***R on June 5, 2024* I’d post some pictures but haven’t installed them yet. They look absolutely amazing though. We have a pepper red ford Bronco and can’t wait to get them installed. Very slick looking wheels. ### ⭐⭐ Balance Issues *by A***R on July 2, 2025* These wheels arrived strapped with lot's of lead balancing weights. Still badly out of balance. The tire shop we have used for years that always road force balances our tires to perfection cannot get our tires balanced. Road force over 40 lbs on 3 of the wheel/tire combos. Tried 3 times, and still shakes. Had the same (literally) tires on the stock Toyota TRD Pro rims for a couple weeks while I waited for these method rims to arrive. The tires balanced out perfectly and ride was smooth as butter. Only change was taking those tires off the stock rims and putting them on these Method rims - no joy since the swap. Very disappointed. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.be/products/123065407-method-race-wheels-312-matte-black-18x9-8x180-18mm-offset](https://www.desertcart.be/products/123065407-method-race-wheels-312-matte-black-18x9-8x180-18mm-offset) --- *Product available on Desertcart Belgium* *Store origin: BE* *Last updated: 2026-10-28*
