All proprietary designed Method beadlock rings are forged. They start from a solid block of 6061 billet aluminum being shaped by extreme pressure, then heat-treated to a T6 standard for ultimate tensile strength.

This process produces a superior alloy that is both stronger and lighter than conventional manufacturing processes.  The elevated manufacturing process of forged wheels starts with a solid block of 6061 billet aluminum being shaped by extreme pressure. It is then heat-treated to a T6 standard at stages of ~1000*F (~558*C) temperatures. This process produces a superior alloy that is both stronger and lighter than conventional wheels.

Redundant sets of threaded Beadlock Ring mounting holes on select Method Beadlock wheels allow for continued wheel use in the event of thread stripping or elevated impact damage. Find super-strong large 3/8" Genuine Grade 8 zinc-plated hardware used on Method's wheels designed for extreme rock-crawling.

Select Method Beadlock wheels feature circular pockets machined into the beadlock flange for added grip of the tire bead to eliminate tire rotation on powerful high-torque producing vehicles.
BEAD SEATS — Years of evolving our proprietary bead seat designs has expanded Method’s race proven technologies to a wider range of enthusiast and professional applications to deliver the highest level of performance possible. Refining the amount of material in specific failure prone areas has allowed Method wheels to achieve superior race results.

METHOD STANDARD — Standard bead seats on Method wheels goes far beyond industry standards with strategic designs that reinforce both the outer and inner lips areas to provide extreme strength and durability at the most failure prone points.

BEAD GRIP — Patented Bead Grip® technology aims to be the bridge between a conventional street wheel and a Beadlock, which is often not legal for highway use. Reducing air pressure in the tire increases traction and ride quality while on the trail. The ability to safely run lower pressures without having to worry about the tire de-beading — along with staying highway legal — will undoubtedly be a bonus to off-road enthusiasts.

BEADLOCK — Beadlock wheels are different from Method’s Standard and Bead Grip® wheels in that they rely on clamping force generated by the tightening of a set of bolts that thread into the wheel and apply force to the Beadlock ring which mechanically clamps and seals the tire’s outer bead to the wheel.

Performance enhancing features are a key design consideration of Method wheels. Optimized weight distribution of structural material can make the wheel stronger and lighter. Product development through analysis of race activities results in significant design evolutions. Reduction of wheel weight by removing all unnecessary material to minimize rotational inertia for maximum fuel efficiency or increase battery range.
Wheel spoke sides are machined to remove nonstructural material which creates an I-Beam cross section shape which strengthens the entire spoke structure while decreasing weight on select wheels. 

Producing a wheel that is lighter and stronger is not just limited to the wheel’s structural design.  For race applications, the outer wheel mounting plate design has been continuously refined to make in the field tire changes faster.  These small tweaks can aid in faster tire changes during pit stops giving Method equipped teams another advantage over the competition.

On the inside of the wheel, non structural material is removed from the inner mounting pad and spoke backs lightening the entire wheel significantly.

Refined A356 aluminum with Method’s proprietary heat treatment process increases the tensile strength of the metal far beyond industry standards. This exclusive process which goes beyond the traditional T6 heat-treatment process allows the wheel to be lighter while maintaining strongest load ratings up to 4500 pounds or 2041 kilograms per wheel at a competitive price compared to forged offerings.
