So new rim time. I really kind of like the Method roost bronze rims for my terrain raptor. Obviously the matte black would look great because half my truck is matte black, but I am really kind of liking the different look of the bronze. Thoughts? Opinions? I would black out the small silver insert circle in the middle I think to give it more offset in color. Let me know.

The MR308 Roost Bronze is a groundbreaking wheel that utilizes our knowledge gained in off-road truck and rally racing. While maintaining all necessary structural integrity, we’ve been able to strategically shed unwanted weight bringing you a truck wheel that means business. Rigorous FEA testing ensures that the Roost may be light, but it will stand up to torture just as well as all other Method wheels. The Roost Bronze includes a bolt-on center ring.

I've got roost bronze on my black raptor and think they look pretty good, but am surprised on the number of compliments I receive on the wheels. I'd love to see them on a terrain too. They're not a normal color by any means. FDE in some light, OD green in shade, and something else other times. What I do lack with these wheels is an aggressive enough tire. I think these would look much better with a more aggressive sidewall at a minimum. Other Methods look good with AT tires, but these need more I think.

Here's a shot on my truck. Perhaps you can photoshop these onto your truck.

Thanks Boarder,

They look great. Different is what I am looking for. Am I seeing black on the inside of the lug nut circle? I thought the rims came silver in that spot. That black look is exactly what I want. Did you paint them? Of is there a cover over them that is black?

I bought black covers from leewheelcap here on FRF. The wheels come with a silver ring that leaves the hub exposed.

So, for about $100 I had leewheelcap make the black metal covers which clean up the look, imho.

I need to put a "SVT" logo in bronze vinyl in the center of the cap.. It's on my list of things to do.

Hey, I just noticed you're in the woodlands. We could arrange to meet up at some point and throw the wheels on your rig.

That black rim looks perfect. I don't like the silver ring. Who do I contact to get those rings? The rims look awesome. We could definitely hook up. You in the Woodlands too?

The rim sitting in the box, that's not a black rim. That's the bronze, photo'd inside with the same iPhone I used to take all the other photos. Like I said, it's a unique color.

I'm in NW Houston out 290 near BW8. Still local enough to meet up and do some swapping. You running 37"? I'm still stock tires.

Shoot me a PM if you need the caps. They're $105 shipped for the black ones. They usually take about 3-4 weeks to complete (cutting and powder).
