2. WHEEL DIAMETER
This is the wheel height.
Most common sizes we build:
20”
22”
24”
26”
28”
30”
Motorcycle wheels:
21” / 23” / 26” / 30”
Bigger diameters = more presence, more show, and require correct tire sizing.
3. WHEEL WIDTH
Wheel width determines stance, tire stretch, poke, and clearance.
Common widths:
10”
12”
14”
16”
Super Single (wide lip)
Dually (narrow rear)
Wider = deeper lip and more aggressive look.
4. OFFSET (ET)
Offset determines how far the wheel sits inside/outside the fender.
Offset Breakdown:
Positive Offset (+):
Wheel sits inward.
Ideal for stock height or lowered setups.
Zero Offset (0):
Neutral look. Balanced.
Negative Offset (-):
Wheel sits outward = poke, deep lip, aggressive stance.
Examples:
-44 = clean poke
-76 = deeper presence
-101 = extreme show fitment
If you want aggressive — you want negative.
5. LIP SIZE
The lip is how deep the wheel face sits back from the edge.
What affects lip size?
Width
Offset
Design style
Barrel specs
Wider wheels + deeper negative offset = bigger lip.
Cutthroat Forged is known for aggressive, deep-cut lips.
6. BRAKE CLEARANCE
Essential for:
Super Duty
GM HD
Newer Ram
High-performance brakes
Big brake kits
SXS builds
Motorcycle rotors
We can adjust:
Pad height
Backpad thickness
Hub bore
Spoke design clearance
Make sure to note if you have a big brake kit.
7. TIRE SIZING
Match the right tire to the right wheel size.
Example setups:
22x12 → 33x12.50r22 or 35x12.50r22
24x14 → 35x14.50r24
26x14 → 37x14.50r26
Tire stretch + overall stance depends on width and sidewall height.
We do not recommend oversized stretch on daily-driven vehicles.
8. LIFT / LEVELING REQUIREMENTS
A wheel’s offset + width = suspension impact.
General guidelines:
22x12: Leveling kit minimum
22x14: 3–6” lift recommended
24x14: 6–8” lift
26x14: 8–12” lift
28+ sizes: Show truck territory only
Every truck differs — always verify clearance.
9. DUALLY FITMENT
Dually wheels require special cuts:
Front vs Rear profiles
Hub clearance
Inner/outer spacing
Deep lips for show trucks
Alcoa conversions
Wide-track setups
10. SXS / UTV FITMENT
We offer:
Can-Am
Polaris
Kawasaki
Honda
Custom spindle setups
11. MOTORCYCLE FITMENT
Harley / Bagger sizes:
21
23
26
30
