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

The ICON Alloys Vector 6 is a 17×8.5 aluminum alloy wheel in a Titanium finish, built in a 6×135 bolt pattern with a +6mm offset and 5-inch backspace. Its concave six-spoke design and application-specific dimensions are engineered to maximize caliper clearance and optimize wheel position for unobstructed suspension travel and steering function, making it a natural pairing with ICON Vehicle Dynamics suspension systems.

Engineered Dimensions, Not Just Aesthetics

The Vector 6's offset and backspace figures are developed specifically to reduce scrub radius, the geometric relationship between the steering axis and the tire's contact patch. A tighter scrub radius means the wheel resists road-surface feedback through the steering wheel and tracks more predictably under braking and cornering, both on pavement and on uneven terrain. These are not generic off-the-shelf measurements adapted after the fact; they are part of the wheel's core design brief.

Aluminum Alloy Construction for Off-Road Use

The Vector 6 is cast from aluminum alloy, a material chosen for its combination of structural strength and reduced unsprung weight. Lower unsprung mass (the weight not supported by the suspension) means the suspension can respond more quickly to surface changes, improving traction and ride compliance off-road. Reduced rotating mass also lightens the load on drivetrain components over the long term.

Features

• Concave six-spoke design: sharp spoke geometry with a recessed face for a purposeful, aggressive appearance.
• Application-specific dimensions: offset and backspace engineered to maximize caliper clearance and optimize suspension travel.
• Reduced scrub radius: geometry developed to improve handling, steering feel, and ride quality.
• Aluminum alloy construction: balances strength with reduced unsprung and rotating mass for on- and off-road performance.
• ICON Vehicle Dynamics compatibility: dimensions optimized to complement ICON suspension systems.

Who This Is For and Isn't

The Vector 6 in this configuration suits trucks and SUVs running a 6×135 bolt pattern (commonly associated with Ford F-150 and certain Lincoln platforms) where the buyer wants a wheel engineered to work with a lifted suspension rather than fighting it. The +6mm offset and 5-inch backspace are designed to complement ICON Vehicle Dynamics suspension geometry specifically.

This wheel does not fit vehicles with a different bolt pattern, offset requirement, or hub bore. Professional mounting, balancing, and fitment verification against the specific vehicle's hub bore and brake caliper clearance are recommended before installation. Tire is not included and is sold separately.

Common Questions

What vehicles does the 6×135 bolt pattern fit?

The 6×135 bolt pattern is most commonly associated with Ford F-150 trucks and certain Lincoln full-size SUVs. The Vector 6 in this configuration is sold per wheel; buyers should confirm hub bore diameter and caliper clearance against their specific vehicle before purchasing, as no confirmed fitment list is available for this exact part number.

Is the tire included with the Vector 6?

The ICON Alloys Vector 6 is sold as a wheel only. Professional mounting and balancing of an appropriately sized tire prior to installation on the vehicle is recommended. Tire selection and purchase are separate from this wheel.

Does this wheel work with a lifted suspension?

The Vector 6's offset and backspace dimensions are engineered specifically to maximize caliper clearance and optimize wheel position for unobstructed suspension travel and steering function. The design is intended to complement ICON Vehicle Dynamics suspension systems, though fitment with other brands' suspension should be verified against the specific lift height and geometry.

What does reduced scrub radius mean for daily driving?

Scrub radius is the distance between the steering axis and the center of the tire's contact patch. The Vector 6's offset and backspace are developed to minimize this figure, which reduces the tendency for road imperfections and braking forces to pull the steering wheel and improves straight-line tracking, a benefit both on highway and on uneven off-road surfaces.
