Off-Road Wheel Guide: Rock ‘n’ Roll

Put your best foot forward

In this latest edition of Rock ‘n’ Roll, we’re focusing on off-road focused wheel offerings from popular brands across the overlanding and racing spaces. From simulated beadlocks to fully-forged construction and classic looks, these wheels have got it all. Which of these wheels will you choose for your rig?

Mayhem / 8306 Ridgeline

The 8306 Ridgeline features a concave eight-spoke design with a vented outer bead and simulated hardware. It has a black snap-in center cap with an embossed Mayhem Wheels logo. They come in Satin Black and Gloss Bronze w/Black lip in a 17-inch diameter for most trucks.

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/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.

Enkei / RPT1

Truck and SUV owners have often asked for Enkei to develop wheel for truck and SUV applications and they listened.

Available in 16-, 17-, and 18-inch applications and a variety of colors.
