These wheels were originally supplied as a special-order military wheel (W0-2009 series) for the General Dynamics Flyer-72 / GMV 1.1 lightweight tactical vehicles used by U.S. Special Operations forces. They are rugged, air-transportable, and built for extreme mobility.

Possible Vehicle Fitments:

• Direct or near-direct bolt-on: Chevy/GMC 2500/3500 HD trucks (many years/models), Dodge/Ram HD with 8x6.5” pattern, and modified Jeeps (JK/JL or others with 8-lug axle swaps like Dana 60/80). The 5.29” backspacing is versatile for many builds—check caliper/brake clearance and suspension.

• General Dynamics Flyer-72 and similar light tactical platforms: Original equipment application.

• HMMWV (Humvee) fitment: Can be adapted with hub machining or centering modifications for compatibility on HMMWV platforms (common practice in military wheel swaps due to similar heavy-duty applications). These would be great on a light weight H1 hummer or HMMWV project. Hubs can easily be machined larger and all the other dimensions are perfect.
