This is exactly what I'm looking for (705's with 0 offset on a JLR). Do you have any photos that show how much wheel poke there is?
a rough calculation.
305 tyre + 44 offset wheel is perfectly covered by OEM fender.
12.5" is 318mm. (318-305)/2+44=50.5mm
so it will poke out around 5cm-6cm (also depends on the sidewall design of the tyre)

This is the best angle have of this (now on a Metalcloak 2.5” gamechanger lift). I really dislike excessive poke, which is why I was originally hesitant to go with an 8.5” wheel with 0 offset.

But this level of poke is perfectly acceptable to me aesthetically, and this setup really is the sweet spot for accommodating at 12.5” wide tire, allowing backspacing for Metalcloak outboard shock mounts, and overall giving you a setup that will not rub.

Complete newbie here, love the color combo, why did you go with the 315 vs 35?

I am trying to get a solid answer so I can talk my way into a set of these guys. Getting the same wheel/color/Jeep trim as you and it’s one the first things I’m looking to upgrade.

Thanks!

Anyone with the 705s? Also, what’s the lowest psi y’all have ran with the 700 series?

Honestly it was just what was available. The 35 were out of stock with no ETA and they are essentially the same size. Or at least close enough for me.

@Memphisthetank, here is a tire calculator showing the difference in size, they are very close. Also tires will vary when mounted depending on PSI.

Thanks for Chiming in was just looking at pricing for wheels and tires. I'm getting some great pricing from another vendor but would like to go through you if I could. Whats the best way of going about it? I have quotes from 2 other vendors plus Discount Tire.

Thanks in advance!

What TPMS sensors are you using? Are you able to use the OEM ones on Method ?
