Race-Proven History
Dakar Proven™
Since its inception in 1977, the Dakar Rally has been the ultimate test of endurance, pushing both man and machine to their limits across Europe, Africa, South America, and the Middle East. Method Race Wheels has not only embraced this challenge but conquered it, earning their wheels the prestigious title of Dakar Proven™. The grueling two-week, multi-stage format and thousands of miles through varied and treacherous terrain serve as the ultimate proving ground for Method's wheels.
Baja Proven™
Baja California, with its beautiful beaches, incredible trails, and amazing food, is a haven for off-roaders. However, it's the unforgiving desert races that truly define the prowess of Method Race Wheels. Enduring multiple days and covering hundreds, if not thousands, of miles through treacherous conditions, competitors from around the world seek the title of Baja Proven™. Method's wheels, alongside the athletes who trust them, stand tall on the podium, showcasing unparalleled durability and performance.
Hammers Proven™
The King of the Hammers, a unique off-road race combining high-speed open desert stretches with razor-sharp rock beds and challenging canyons, separates the contenders from the champions. Method wheels, marked with the moniker Hammers Proven™, have conquered this challenging course where raw horsepower is the key to victory. The short course style start/finish, desert sprints, and rock crawls make it a true test of skill and endurance, and Method's wheels have proven time and again that they can handle the demanding terrain.
Finke Proven™
Heading down under, the Finke, a two-day off-road race in the Northern Territory of Australia, puts Method wheels to the test in the harsh outback terrain. From red dirt and sand to native plants and desert oak trees, this race is a true battle against nature. Method Race Wheels proudly claims the title of Finke Proven™ as their wheels, and the athletes they support, conquer this challenging course, establishing themselves as the kings of the desert. The Finke has a rich history, gaining the reputation as the richest off-road race in Australia. The inclusion of cars and off-road buggies in 1988 added another layer of competition. The rivalry between bikes and buggies for the title of "Kings of the Desert" only intensified, creating a saga that Method has become an integral part of since a buggy claimed victory in 1999.

Beadlock Technology
Unlike traditional wheels relying solely on inflation pressure, beadlock wheels harness clamping force. Tightening bolts thread into the wheel, applying pressure to the beadlock ring, mechanically sealing the tire's outer bead to the wheel. The standout feature? Independence from inflation pressure. For off-road enthusiasts, this means unparalleled advantages. Beadlock wheels maintain a secure seal regardless of tire pressure. Lowering inflation on challenging terrains increases traction, expanding the tire's contact patch on loose surfaces. Simultaneously, the technology diminishes ride harshness on rough landscapes by reducing the tire's effective spring rate. In essence, beadlock technology is the key to unlocking off-road potential. It's the assurance of optimal performance in varied terrains, giving enthusiasts the edge they need for a smoother, more controlled, and thrilling ride. When it comes to off-road prowess, beadlock wheels are the choice for those who demand more from their adventure.
