About this part

Product Details

The 12mm offset on this 18x9 ION Type 179 wheel helps push the wheel out slightly from the hub, giving your truck or SUV a more aggressive stance. The 8x165.1 bolt pattern is a common fitment for many heavy-duty American trucks, and the 130.8mm hub bore ensures it clears the center hub properly.

This wheel is constructed using a cast aluminum process, which allows for intricate designs like the machined face and black accents you see here. The cast aluminum is well-built and offers a good balance of strength for daily driving and weight savings compared to steel wheels. It’s a popular choice for those looking to change up the look of their vehicle with a wheel that stands out.

When installing these wheels, remember to use the correct lug nuts for your vehicle's studs, as the bolt pattern and offset can affect fitment. It's always a good idea to confirm fitment with the manufacturer's data before purchasing.
