MR701
Overview:
The Method Wheels 701-HD Bead Grip® wheel is engineered specifically for overland enthusiasts who demand durability and reliability while carrying heavier loads. Designed as a Heavy Duty (HD) wheel, it supports an impressive load rating of 4,500 lbs., making it ideal for vehicles that haul extra gear or equipment. This wheel incorporates Method’s innovative Bead Grip® technology, allowing tire pressures to be lowered safely without the risk of the tire bead separating from the rim, a feature traditionally reserved for beadlock wheels.
Lowering tire pressure is a common technique used by off-roaders to increase the tire’s contact patch, improving traction on loose or uneven terrain while also enhancing ride comfort by effectively softening the tire’s spring rate. The 701-HD wheel’s valve placement is strategically designed to protect against damage in harsh off-road environments, ensuring long-lasting performance and peace of mind.
