So, was he actually trying to overshoot the landing ramp on the backside of that kicker ?

Or just a miscalculation of speed ?

Hey TMX when all the damage was assessed how bad did it mess up the ICON 3.0s?? And did their truck have any frame support?

This was posted after my tounge in cheek post obviously. If you think your TR's would have held up better feel free to try it. The wheel still is in one piece though, that is saying plenty. You do understand 300K trophy trucks run off the shelf Method Beadlocks don't you. I do think you method haters are dramatizing the bad quality of these wheels just a bit really you are.

I think I have stated the reasons why I really don't like Chinese made products for my American made vehicles before, #1 I have restored many old muscle cars and at the moment working on three of them, to put Chinese made parts on these cars devalues them, I feel the same way about my Raptor. #2 With free trade it is cheaper and less hassle for me to import something made in America.

Hey j train lend me your truck ill put my trrs on it and launch it well see. If they are like those method wheels ill owenya a new truck...

Or we could get a fully loaded 80, 000lb semi and hit one of your wheels.... close to the force that that those Methods saw and I bet youll get the same result. Im almost positive any wheel would have the same or similar damage in this case.
