Built specifically for the GM HD truck platform, Foundation 395 HD 18x9 wheels are designed to offer a high capacity and customizable wheel option created from the ground up for heavy duty full size trucks. No other wheel on the market ticks all the boxes at the same price point! Please note that center caps are included with all wheels at no extra charge.
We create these wheels using flow form construction that strengthens the barrel of the wheel to reduce weight and increase durability without the cost of a forged wheel. The 8 spoke design and flow formed barrel give the Foundation 395 HD wheel a massive SAE J2530 load rating of 4,500lbs per wheel with a 37" tire. Most other wheels are rated with a stock tire, and we are not aware of any other off road wheel that has gone through the SAE J2530 rating process, which you can read more about here.
All Foundation wheels have bead retention built in, so you don't have to worry about losing a tire at low pressures off road, or deal with the hassles of a true bead lock on the street.
Our testing ensures the 395 HD is tough enough to endure hard off road usage, towing, or in bed camper weight. Careful thought was given to the wheel design to allow for ample fitment of sockets for easy wheel install/removal, easy cleaning, and a design that's as timeless as it is strong.
We offer these wheels exclusively in +19 offset which we feel is the sweet spot for the correct stance and fitment of larger tires on the GM platform like 35s or 37s with as little trimming as possible when paired with a 3" level kit. If going with a 37s, we recommend using a 37/12.5 tire for the best results as there's limited room on the GM platform.
The Foundation 395 HD can be configured with two ring options and two ring color options. Choose from the smooth ring design for a clean look, or the drain hole ring to prevent water build up with a more aggressive visual appearance. The rings are easily removable for custom finish and protect the wheels from rock rash. Should a ring get damaged, simply unbolt it, replace it, and keep wheeling! These are simulated bead lock wheels, meaning there's no hassle with leaking or tire mounting like a true beadlock.
The center caps for these wheels fit all GM trucks, or you can run the wheel without caps.
These wheels are a passion project to bring the best of the best to market at a reasonable price. Our goal was to tailor build a wheel specific to HD trucks, while also allowing unique, personalized touches depending on your build. Welcome to the Foundation family.
Fitment Specs:
18x9 Sizing
+19 Offset / 5.75" Backspace
8x180 Bolt Pattern
Please note pre 2011 GM trucks use the 8x6.5 bolt pattern, so you will want to order from the Ram wheel page instead as they share the same bolt pattern.
Weight: About 30lbs Depending on Ring
These wheels are lug centric, but since the center caps snap on from the outside of the wheel, you can run center caps and hub centric rings if desired, which isn't possible with the push through caps on most other wheels. Hub centric rings are NOT required, as these wheels were designed and load tested in lug centric configuration.
