Lots of good info. I appreciate it. Method has some nice wheels for a d2 but I know a few guys with those wheels already so….. not really trying to “copy” them. I like the the steel d2 wheels look. Mainly exploring available options. I currently have stock alloys with bfg ats that still have over 10/32. So I will get a completely new wheel set with mts that way it’s not annoying as hell driving all the time with mud terrains

For 35’s, probably the best size is 16x8 with 4.50” backspace. That may be ET0 but double check. Should be D2 steel wheel choices in that size.

The modular 16x8 ET25 with 35’s may be offset enough to not affect turning radius too much. Basically equal to using 30mm spacers with stock wheels.

I’m sure someone here has that and can comment. These aren’t 35’s, but shows the wheel offset.
