The Method MR709 HD Bead Grip in Machined Clear Coat is what we recommend if you want to run low pressures on the beach without the legal and maintenance headaches of a full beadlock. We have seen plenty of tyres roll off rims in Australian conditions, but this patented Bead Grip tech uses internal grooves to bite into the tyre bead and keep it seated when you are aired down deep.

• Built from heat-treated T6 aluminium so they stay rigid and do not go soft when you are working them hard off-road
• Classic 12-window design with the Method logo stamped right into the metal
• Customise your look with replaceable 12-point lip bolts available in different colours
• Optional Forged Impact Rings can be bolted on if you want extra protection against rock rash
• Includes an aggressive safety hump on the bead seat to further stop the tyre from popping off
• Features a reinforced inner lip based on Method's actual race wheels for maximum structural strength
• Comes with a secure snap-in centre cap that actually fits properly on 8-lug hubs
• Rated to 1,501 kgs and 2,041 kgs depending on the application. That means you can load up your GVM-upgraded rig or tow a heavy off-road van without worrying about a wheel failure in the middle of nowhere
• Lifetime structural warranty because Method stands behind their gear as much as we do
• Workshop insight: The 709 HD is a massive step up in strength over the standard range. We usually suggest these for the 300 Series or heavy American trucks because they are built to handle the sheer weight of a fully loaded tourer without breaking a sweat.
