Wrap the integer in an NSNumber before passing it:

int next_int = 1
NSNumber *theNumber = [NSNumber numberWithInt:next_int];
[self performSelectorOnMainThread:@selector(meth2:) withObject:theNumber waitUntilDone:NO];

Then your -meth2: method could look something like this:

- (void)meth2:(NSNumber*)theNumber
{
    int next_int = [theNumber intValue];
    // do whatever
}
