Mayhem / 8306 Ridgeline The 8306 Ridgeline features a concave eight-spoke design with a vented outer bead and simulated hardware.

Subscribe to our weekly newsletter mayhemwheels.com Titan 7 / T-AK1 Titan 7 is all about actual performance gains from their wheels. This is why they produced the T-AK1, a fully forged wheel that features anti slip knurling for added traction along with triangulated inner spoke machining to reduce weight while keeping a sturdy structure. The result is a premium wheel that is one of the lightest of its kind in the world. Reduced unsprung weight improves driving, handling and MPG. Available in colors Satin Titanium (shown) and Techna Bronze. titan-7.com Titan 7/T-AK2 Titan 7 infuses motorsport features into the T-AK2 that include a knurled tire beadseat for maximum traction and durable lightness to help prevent slowing down the vehicle due to the added weight of larger tires. Rim sections are strengthened to ensure wheels are rock solid on the pavement or off-road. It’s available in Satin Titanium, Machine Black, Techna Bronze and Tioga Green. titan-7.com Mayhem / 8305 Compass The 8305 Compass features a multi-spoke design with a vented outer bead and simulated hardware.
