ICON Alloys Cajon 20x9 8x180 +12mm Double Black Wheel
Couldn't load pickup availability
The ICON Alloys Cajon is a multi-spoke aluminum alloy 20x9 wheel in Double Black powder coat finish, built for Jeeps, trucks, and SUVs running lifted or performance suspension. This specific configuration carries an 8x180 bolt pattern, 12mm offset, 5.5-inch backspace, and a 4,000 lb load rating per wheel.

Engineered Around Suspension Performance
The Cajon's offset and backspace figures are application-specific, not generic. The 12mm offset and 5.5-inch backspace work together to reduce scrub radius (the distance between the steering axis and the tire's contact patch), which translates to more predictable steering feel and reduced steering kickback on rough terrain. For a truck or SUV already running a lift, that geometry difference is meaningful: a wheel with the wrong offset can fight the suspension rather than complement it.
Caliper Clearance and Suspension Travel
The Cajon is designed to maximize caliper clearance and keep the wheel positioned for full, unobstructed suspension travel and steering function. On a lifted rig with larger brakes or aftermarket calipers, clearance is often the first thing a generic wheel gets wrong. The Cajon's spoke layout and inner barrel geometry are developed specifically to avoid that conflict, so the wheel works with the suspension rather than limiting it.
Reduced Unsprung Weight
Aluminum alloy construction keeps unsprung and rotating mass lower than a comparable steel wheel. Unsprung weight, the mass not supported by the suspension, directly affects how quickly the wheel follows terrain changes. Less of it means the suspension can respond faster, which improves both on-road ride quality and off-road traction over broken ground.

Technical Note: Professional mounting and balancing of an appropriately sized tire prior to installation onto the vehicle is recommended.
Who This Is For and Isn't
The Cajon in this configuration suits Jeeps, trucks, and SUVs with an 8x180 bolt pattern, a bolt pattern found on certain full-size GM trucks and vans, where the buyer wants a 20x9 wheel with a modest positive offset suited to lifted or performance suspension builds.
This wheel does not fit vehicles with any bolt pattern other than 8x180. Buyers needing a different diameter, width, offset, or finish should confirm those figures against their vehicle's specifications before purchasing, as this listing covers only the single configuration above.
Common Questions
What vehicles use an 8x180 bolt pattern?
The 8x180 bolt pattern is used on certain full-size GM trucks and vans, including several Chevrolet Silverado 2500/3500 and GMC Sierra 2500/3500 model years. Buyers should verify their specific vehicle's bolt pattern, center bore, and load requirements before ordering, as this Cajon listing is sized and offset for that bolt pattern only.
What does the 12mm offset mean for fitment and handling?
A 12mm positive offset on the ICON Alloys Cajon means the wheel's mounting face sits 12mm toward the outside of the wheel from the centerline. Combined with the 5.5-inch backspace, this positions the tire closer to the vehicle centerline than a zero or negative offset would, which reduces scrub radius and is engineered to complement lifted suspension geometry rather than fight it.
Is the 4,000 lb load rating per wheel or for a set of four?
The 4,000 lb load rating on the ICON Alloys Cajon is per individual wheel. Buyers should confirm that the per-wheel rating meets or exceeds the corner weight requirements of their specific vehicle, particularly on heavier trucks or builds carrying additional gear or armor.
Does the Cajon require any special hardware or hub rings?
No hub ring or hardware specifications are listed for this Cajon configuration. Professional mounting and balancing by a qualified tire shop is recommended before installation. Buyers should confirm center bore compatibility with their vehicle's hub diameter with a wheel or tire specialist prior to purchase.
