Count the spokes on a Thunderlips and you'll lose track: dozens of slim split spokes fan out from the hub to the lip. With every face machined bright over gloss black, the detail shows from across the parking lot.
Trail riders can stick with a 14x7 or 15x7, while big-wheel builds can step up to 20, 22 or 24 inches. Need a Pro R or Turbo R fitment? The 5x114.3 sizes handle that, while dual-drilled hubs cover 4x137 and 4x156 machines.

- Fitment Check: Confirm your machine's bolt pattern, and check that the offset and tire size clear your suspension, brakes, and fenders at full lock and full compression before mounting.
- Replacement Center Caps: MSA part numbers: M50L142-H49-GBCH, M50L142-H49-SBGB.
