ICON Alloys Compression 18x9 6x135 +6mm Satin Black Wheel

The ICON Alloys Compression is an 18x9-inch aluminum alloy wheel in a 6x135 bolt pattern with a 6mm offset, 5.25-inch backspacing, and a 2,750-pound load rating. Built for trucks and SUVs that see both hard off-road use and heavy towing or hauling duty, this listing is for a single wheel in Satin Black finish.

Shipping: ICON parts ship direct from ICON Vehicle Dynamics, mostly by UPS Ground. Lead times vary by part and some items are built to order, so please allow extra time. We email tracking as soon as your order ships.

Application-Optimized Dimensions

The Compression's 6mm offset and 5.25-inch backspacing are sized for specific vehicle applications rather than generic fitment. That combination maximizes caliper clearance, reduces scrub radius, and keeps suspension travel unhindered: all factors that affect steering feel and handling consistency on and off pavement. A wheel that clears calipers properly and sits at the right scrub radius lets the suspension work through its full travel without geometry interference.

2,750-Pound Load Rating

At 2,750 pounds per wheel, the Compression's load rating is suited to trucks carrying heavy payloads or towing regularly. Load rating is a structural limit, not a marketing figure. A wheel that meets the rating for a loaded truck keeps the tire bead seated and the wheel intact under the stresses of washboard roads, rock crawling, and highway towing combined.

High-Strength Aluminum Alloy Construction

Aluminum alloy construction reduces unsprung and rotating mass compared to steel, which improves both on-road response and off-road compliance. Less rotating mass means the suspension reacts faster to terrain changes. The alloy used here is selected for strength properties suited to off-road conditions, not just weight savings.

Features

• Load rating: 2,750 pounds per wheel
• Application-specific offset and backspacing: 6mm offset, 5.25-inch backspacing for maximized caliper clearance and reduced scrub radius
• High-strength aluminum alloy: reduces unsprung and rotating mass while meeting off-road strength demands
• Unhindered suspension travel: dimensions chosen to avoid interference with suspension components through full travel
• Finish: Satin Black

California Proposition 65 Warning: This product contains chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth anomalies, or other reproductive harm.

Installation 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 ICON Alloys Compression 18x9 in 6x135 is designed for trucks and SUVs running a 6x135 bolt pattern that require a wheel with a high load rating for off-road, towing, or hauling use. The 6mm offset and 5.25-inch backspacing suit applications where caliper clearance and scrub radius are a fitment concern.

This wheel is sold individually, not as a set. It is not compatible with vehicles using a different bolt pattern, and the specific offset and backspacing may not suit every 6x135 application; confirm fitment against your vehicle's requirements before ordering.

Common Questions

What is the load rating on the Compression 18x9?

The ICON Alloys Compression 18x9 carries a 2,750-pound load rating per wheel. This rating reflects the wheel's structural capacity under the combined stresses of off-road use and loaded towing or hauling, and is the figure to compare against your vehicle's per-wheel load requirements.

How many wheels does this listing include?

This listing is for a single ICON Alloys Compression wheel. To purchase a full set, add the quantity needed: four for a standard fitment, or five if you are also replacing a matching spare.

Does the 6x135 bolt pattern fit my vehicle?

The 6x135 bolt pattern fits a range of trucks and SUVs, but the only way to confirm compatibility is to match the bolt pattern, offset, and backspacing against your specific vehicle's requirements. No confirmed fitment list by make, model, and year is available for this wheel; verify against your vehicle's specifications before purchasing.

Is professional installation required?

Professional mounting and balancing of an appropriately sized tire onto the ICON Alloys Compression wheel prior to installing it on the vehicle is recommended. Proper mounting and balancing affects ride quality, tire wear, and wheel retention, and should not be skipped regardless of experience level.
