ICON Alloys Vector 6 17x8.5 6x135 +6mm Bronze Wheel

The ICON Alloys Vector 6 is a 17×8.5 aluminum alloy wheel in Bronze finish, built in a 6×135 bolt pattern with a +6mm offset and 5-inch backspace. Concave spoke geometry and application-specific dimensions are engineered to maximize caliper clearance and support unobstructed suspension travel and steering function on Jeeps, trucks, and SUVs running that bolt pattern.

Engineered Dimensions, Not Just Styling

The Vector 6's +6mm offset and 5-inch backspace were developed specifically to reduce scrub radius, the geometric relationship between the steering axis and the tire contact patch. A tighter scrub radius means less steering kickback over rough terrain and more predictable handling on pavement, without requiring any modification to the hub or brake hardware.

Caliper and Suspension Clearance by Design

ICON Alloys designs the Vector 6's spoke profile and inner barrel geometry to clear larger brake calipers and give suspension components room to move through their full travel range. Buyers running an ICON Vehicle Dynamics suspension system will find the offset and backspace dimensions are specifically complementary to ICON's own geometry targets, reducing the guesswork of matching a wheel to a lifted or performance-tuned setup.

Aluminum Construction for Off-Road Use

The Vector 6 is cast from aluminum alloy, a material chosen for its strength-to-weight ratio in off-road applications. Reducing unsprung and rotating mass (the weight the suspension must control and the wheel and tire must spin) improves both on-road ride quality and the suspension's ability to track terrain at speed.

Features

• Concave spoke design: sharp-lined profile with application-specific inner geometry for caliper clearance
• Reduced scrub radius: offset and backspace developed to improve handling and steering feel
• Aluminum alloy construction: reduces unsprung and rotating mass for on- and off-road performance
• ICON suspension compatibility: dimensions optimized to complement ICON Vehicle Dynamics suspension systems

Specifications

Who This Is For and Isn't

The Vector 6 in this configuration suits buyers with a 6×135 bolt pattern vehicle, including many Ford F-150 and Lincoln Navigator applications, who want a wheel engineered for caliper clearance and suspension compatibility, particularly alongside an ICON Vehicle Dynamics suspension system.

This wheel does not fit vehicles with a different bolt pattern; the 6×135 pattern is not interchangeable with 6×139.7 or other common six-lug configurations. Professional mounting and balancing by a qualified tire shop is recommended before installation.

Common Questions

What vehicles use a 6×135 bolt pattern?

The 6×135 bolt pattern is used on a number of Ford and Lincoln trucks and SUVs. Buyers should confirm their specific make, model, and year against a fitment guide before ordering, as this pattern is not shared with the more common 6×139.7 used on GM, Toyota, and Nissan trucks.

Can the Vector 6 be paired with an ICON Vehicle Dynamics suspension lift?

ICON Alloys states that the Vector 6's offset and backspace dimensions are specifically developed to complement ICON Vehicle Dynamics suspension systems. The geometry is designed to maintain correct wheel position and minimize scrub radius changes that can occur when suspension geometry is altered by a lift.

Is professional installation required?

ICON Alloys recommends professional mounting and balancing of an appropriately sized tire before the Vector 6 is installed on a vehicle. This is standard practice for any aftermarket wheel and ensures the assembly is properly seated and balanced before driving.

Does this product carry a California Proposition 65 warning?

Yes. This product contains chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth anomalies, or other reproductive harm. This warning is required under California law and applies to the wheel as sold.
