ICON EV Unveils Rugged Ford Explorer Wheel Line, Built for Adventure

TAMPA, FL – October 26, 2023 – ICON EV LLC, a Tampa-based leader in aftermarket vehicle enhancements, today announced the launch of a brand new line of wheels specifically designed for Ford Explorer owners who crave a tougher, more capable look and enhanced performance. Located at 4406 Madison Industrial Ln Bldg A, ICON EV is quickly becoming the go-to source for premium off-road and overland upgrades, and these new Explorer wheels are a key part of that mission. You can reach ICON EV directly at 925-552-9598. For years, the Ford Explorer has been a family favorite – practical, reliable, and increasingly capable, especially in its newer, more adventure-ready iterations. But many Explorer owners feel their SUV could use a visual upgrade to match its potential. That’s where ICON EV steps in. We saw a gap in the market – high-quality, aggressively styled wheels that don’t break the bank and really elevate the Explorer’s presence. “We’re not just selling wheels; we’re selling a lifestyle,” says the ICON EV team. “We want Explorer owners to feel confident taking their SUV anywhere, whether it’s a weekend camping trip, a trek through the mountains, or just cruising around town with a more assertive look. These wheels are built to handle it all.” What Makes ICON EV Explorer Wheels Different? ICON EV isn’t just slapping a new finish on existing designs. We’ve meticulously engineered these wheels specifically for the Ford Explorer, taking into account its weight, suspension, and popular tire sizes. Here's a breakdown of what you can expect: Aggressive Styling: Forget boring, factory-looking wheels. These designs are bold, modern, and built to turn heads. We’re launching with three initial styles: The 'Ridge Runner': Our most rugged design, featuring a multi-spoke pattern and a deep lip. It’s built for those who spend serious time off-road. Available in Matte Black, Gunmetal Grey, and a unique Bronze finish. We've seen a lot of Explorer owners pair these with beefier all-terrain tires for a truly imposing look. The 'Urban Warrior': A more streamlined, contemporary design that looks fantastic on city streets and backroads alike. This wheel features a split-spoke design and is offered in Gloss Black, Silver Machined, and Anthracite. It's a great option for those who want a subtle but noticeable upgrade. The 'Trailblazer': A classic five-spoke design with a modern twist. This wheel is incredibly versatile and complements a wide range of Explorer trims and colors. Available in Matte Black, Silver Polished, and a striking Copper finish. Flow Formed Construction: All ICON EV Explorer wheels are flow formed, which offers a fantastic balance of strength, weight, and cost. This process stretches and compresses the aluminum to create a wheel that's significantly stronger than a cast wheel without the price tag of a fully forged wheel. What does that mean for you? Improved handling, better fuel economy, and added durability. Optimized Fitment: We’ve done the research so you don’t have to. These wheels are designed to fit directly onto your Ford Explorer (specific years and trims apply – check our website for compatibility), with no modifications needed. We’ve tested them extensively to ensure proper clearance and a smooth, safe ride. We currently offer wheels in 17", 18", 19" and 20" diameters and a variety of offsets to perfectly suit your Explorer’s stance. Durable Finish: We know your Explorer is going to see some action, so we’ve applied a multi-stage paint and clear coat process to ensure these wheels can withstand whatever you throw at them – from harsh weather to rocky terrain. The finishes are chip-resistant and easy to clean, keeping your wheels looking sharp for years to come. Lightweight Design: Reducing unsprung weight is a key performance upgrade. ICON EV wheels are engineered to be lighter than many factory and aftermarket options, which improves acceleration, handling, and braking performance. You'll actually feel the difference on the road. Beyond Aesthetics: Performance Benefits These wheels aren't just about looks. While they definitely enhance your Explorer’s visual appeal, they also offer tangible performance benefits. Improved Handling: The lighter weight and optimized design contribute to a more responsive and controlled driving experience. Enhanced Braking: Reducing unsprung weight allows your brakes to work more efficiently, potentially shortening stopping distances. Better Fuel Economy: Lighter wheels require less energy to rotate, which can translate to a slight improvement in fuel economy. Increased Ground Clearance (with larger tires): Pairing these wheels with larger tires can provide increased ground clearance, allowing you to tackle more challenging terrain.
