Method Wheels MR701 HD 18x9 +18 Offset 8x180 Matte Black Bead Grip Wheel

The 701-HD Bead Grip® wheel was designed to be the perfect wheel for overland enthusiasts who are hauling a little extra. This Heavy Duty (HD) wheel boasts a load rating of 4,500 lbs. for maximum payload. The Bead Grip® technology allows deflation of tires down to pressures that previously would have required beadlock wheels to make sure tires didn't debead. It's advantageous to reduce tire inflation pressure while off-roading to increase a tire's contact patch surface area for better traction on loose surfaces as well as improve ride comfort by effectively reducing the spring rate of the tire. The valve was strategically placed for extra protection in harsh riding environments.

• Aggressive safety hump on bead seats further to prevent debeading
• Reinforced inner lip taken from MRW race wheel increases strength
• Industry best lifetime manufacturer's structural warranty
• Classic 8 window design with debossed Method logo on face
• Solid A356 aluminum with T6 heat treatement construction
• Push through center cap with embossed Method logo

The Method Wheels MR701 HD Bead Grip wheel is engineered for overland enthusiasts and heavy-duty truck applications that demand dependable strength and off-road performance. Part number MR70189088518H features a durable cast A356 aluminum construction with T6 heat treatment, a 4,500-pound load rating, and a classic eight-window design finished in matte black. The +18mm offset and 8x180 bolt pattern provide a purpose-built fitment for compatible heavy-duty applications, while the 130.81mm hub bore supports proper installation with the correct vehicle hardware.
Bead Grip technology helps maintain tire bead engagement at reduced air pressures, allowing drivers to increase the tire contact patch for improved traction on loose terrain and a more comfortable ride. An aggressive safety hump on the bead seats adds another layer of resistance against debeading during demanding off-road use. The valve stem is strategically positioned for added protection in harsh riding environments, and the reinforced inner lip is derived from Method Racing Wheels race wheel designs to enhance strength where it matters most.
The MR701 HD combines functional off-road engineering with recognizable Method styling. Its debossed Method logo, push-through center cap with embossed branding, and clean eight-window face create a distinctive appearance without compromising utility. The wheel is backed by Method Wheels’ industry-leading lifetime manufacturer structural warranty, offering added confidence for drivers who use their vehicles for overlanding, hauling, and challenging trail conditions. Professional installation is recommended, and tire, suspension, and vehicle clearance should be verified before installation.
