A Multi-Terrain Cast Wheel Built for Lifted Crossovers and Light Trucks on the 5x114.3 Bolt Pattern

The fifteen52 Wander MX in Asphalt Black is a 17x8 cast aluminum wheel designed for crossover and light truck platforms running a 5x114.3 bolt pattern. The WMXAB-78054+38 combines a 38mm positive offset with a 73.1mm hub bore, making it a bolt-on fitment for a broad range of Subaru, Toyota, Honda, Acura, Jeep, Nissan, Kia, and Hyundai applications. Each wheel is sold individually and includes a center cap. Valve stems are not included.

Key Features

• Cast aluminum construction provides a balance of strength and weight management at the 17x8 size for crossover and light truck applications
• Asphalt Black finish is a dark, matte-adjacent finish designed to complement lifted crossover and mild off-road builds without the maintenance demands of polished or chrome finishes
• ET+38 offset positions the wheel toward the inner fender well, suitable for stock or modestly lifted vehicles with standard fender clearances on 5x114.3 platforms
• 73.1mm center bore accommodates a broad range of hub diameters across 5x114.3 applications; hub-centric rings should be used where the factory hub OD is smaller than 73.1mm
• 6.0-inch backspacing supports standard All-Terrain and crossover tire sizing including 245/65R17 and 245/70R17 with minimal rubbing on typical 5x114.3 crossovers
• 26.51 lb wheel weight appropriate for its size and application; 1,834 lb load rating per wheel
• SAE tested construction meets industry structural standards
• TPMS compatible; aftermarket TPMS sensors can be installed using the included valve stem port
• Lifetime structural warranty and 1-year paint/finish warranty when purchased from an authorized fifteen52 dealer

About fifteen52

fifteen52 is an adventure-focused wheel brand that designs wheels for drivers who take their crossovers, SUVs, and light trucks off pavement regularly. Founded around motorsport and adventure culture, fifteen52 structures their lineup around specific platforms and uses, from street to light off-road to full overland builds. Their wheels are SAE-tested and backed by a lifetime structural warranty when purchased from authorized dealers. The Wander MX is built specifically for the crossover and lifted-crossover market segment, available in multiple bolt patterns and offset configurations to cover the most common 5-lug platforms in that space.

FAQ

The WMXAB-78054+38 Wander MX is sold individually, as a single wheel. If you are purchasing a full set for your vehicle, you will need to add four units to your order. Each unit ships with one center cap. Valve stems are not included and should be purchased separately or sourced from your tire installer at the time of mounting.

The Wander MX WMXAB-78054+38 fits any vehicle with a 5x114.3 bolt pattern and a hub bore equal to or smaller than 73.1mm, where the 38mm offset and 8.0-inch width are compatible with the vehicle's fender clearance. Common 5x114.3 vehicles include the Toyota RAV4, Subaru Outback and Forester, Honda CR-V and Pilot, Acura MDX and RDX, Jeep Cherokee (KL), Nissan Rogue, Kia Telluride and Sorento, Hyundai Santa Fe and Tucson, and many others. Always verify suspension clearance and fender fitment with your specific vehicle, tire size, and lift height before purchasing.

The hub bore on the WMXAB-78054+38 is 73.1mm. If your vehicle's hub OD is smaller than 73.1mm, a hub-centric ring is recommended to eliminate any small gap between the wheel center bore and the hub. Most Toyota, Subaru, Honda, and Nissan 5x114.3 applications have hub diameters in the 54.1-67.1mm range, which means hub-centric rings are needed for a properly centered installation. Fifteen52 and many aftermarket wheel retailers sell hub-centric rings in the appropriate sizes. Running without hub-centric rings can cause vibration at highway speeds.

The Wander MX 17x8 +38 with its 6.0-inch backspacing is most commonly paired with 245/65R17 or 245/70R17 All-Terrain tires on 5x114.3 crossovers like the RAV4, Outback Wilderness, and Forester. These sizes provide adequate sidewall height for light off-road use while maintaining reasonable clearance at stock or mildly lifted ride heights. Larger tires such as 255/70R17 may be possible depending on the vehicle and any lift installed, but fender and suspension clearance must be verified before mounting. Always check with your installer before committing to a specific tire size on a given vehicle and suspension setup.

Yes. The Wander MX is TPMS compatible and the wheel includes a standard valve stem hole that accepts aftermarket TPMS snap-in or bolt-in sensors. If your vehicle uses factory TPMS sensors, your tire installer will transfer the existing sensors from your OEM wheels to the new Wander MX wheels at the time of mounting. Valve stems are not included with the wheel and should be provided by your installer or purchased separately.

Fifteen52 provides a lifetime structural warranty covering defects in material and workmanship under normal and intended use for the original owner when the wheels are purchased new from an authorized fifteen52 dealer. A 1-year finish warranty is also provided covering paint and finish defects from the original purchase date. The warranty does not cover damage from off-road or track use, chemical exposure including road salt, mechanical car wash equipment, improper installation, accident or curb damage, or re-finishing. All warranty claims must be initiated through the authorized dealer from which the wheels were originally purchased.

The Wander MX is popular on mildly lifted crossovers and SUVs. The WMXAB-78054+38 at 38mm positive offset is designed to sit within the stock fender envelope on most 5x114.3 applications. If you are running a significant suspension lift (2 inches or more), the increased wheel travel may require a spacer, lower offset, or wider fender clearance to avoid rubbing at full articulation. However, fifteen52's warranty is voided for off-road use, so if you plan to use the wheels on the trail rather than on pavement only, factor that into your purchasing decision.

No. Lug nuts are not included with the Wander MX WMXAB-78054+38. Most aftermarket wheels require a specific seat type for the lug nut (conical/tapered, ball seat, or flat/mag seat). Fifteen52 wheels typically use a 60-degree conical seat lug nut. Confirm the correct seat type, thread pitch, and shank length for your vehicle before purchasing lug nuts. Your tire installer can verify the correct specification if you are unsure.

The Asphalt Black finish on the Wander MX is a painted finish covered by fifteen52's 1-year finish warranty. Like all painted wheel finishes, it can be damaged by harsh wheel cleaners, strong alkaline brake dust removers, road salt, and abrasive cleaning tools. Cleaning with a mild soap and water solution and avoiding pressure washing the wheel face directly will extend the life of the finish. If the finish is damaged by chemical exposure or mechanical car wash equipment, this is explicitly excluded from fifteen52's warranty coverage.

Installation Instructions

1. Verify that the WMXAB-78054+38 5x114.3 bolt pattern, 73.1mm hub bore, and +38mm offset are compatible with your specific vehicle and tire size combination before proceeding.
2. If your vehicle's hub OD is smaller than 73.1mm, install the appropriate hub-centric rings onto the wheel before mounting to the vehicle.
3. Safely raise and support the vehicle on jack stands. Remove the existing wheel and tire assembly.
4. Inspect the hub face for rust, corrosion, or debris. Clean and dry the hub mating surface before installing the new wheel.
5. Mount the new tire onto the fifteen52 Wander MX wheel at a tire shop. Confirm the tire installer uses clip-on weights only in locations that do not contact the face of the wheel, as clip-on weights on the face void the finish warranty.
6. Have a TPMS sensor installed if required by your vehicle's system, using a sensor and stem compatible with the wheel's valve hole diameter.
7. Position the wheel and tire assembly onto the hub, aligning the bolt holes to the studs. Thread the lug nuts by hand first.
8. Torque the lug nuts in a star pattern to the vehicle manufacturer's specified torque value using a calibrated torque wrench. Do not use an impact gun to final-torque the wheel.
9. Re-torque after the first 50 to 100 miles of driving to confirm the lug nuts have not loosened as the wheel seats against the hub.
