How to Read Wheel Offset & Measurements
Use these two references before ordering: the left diagram shows where each spec (PCD, center bore, offset, width and diameter) is measured on the wheel; the right diagram shows how positive, zero and negative offset shift the wheel face relative to the hub centerline.
ANKUSI Engineering Expert Advice
SUVs carry more curb weight higher off the ground, so wheel strength and rotational mass both matter more than on a comparable sedan — a heavier wheel amplifies body roll and slows steering response exactly where the platform is already working hardest. Forging keeps the wheel light without giving up the load rating the factory suspension geometry was tuned around.
The Cadillac Escalade IQ runs a 8x165.1 bolt pattern, 116.7mm center bore, and a 24x9.5J at ET35, front and rear, wheel from the factory. Our Flush Fitment reference is 24x10.5J ET30, which tucks the tire under the fender lip on a stock-height Cadillac Escalade IQ. Our Maximum Aggressive reference is 26x11J ET25 — beyond that offset, expect rubbing against the inner fender liner under compression without further trimming.
Cadillac Escalade IQ OE Wheel Specs
The 2025 Cadillac Escalade IQ (EV SUV) uses a 8x165.1 bolt pattern with a 116.7mm center bore. Factory wheels are 24x9.5J at ET35.
Why the factory spec works for most owners:
- Supports the vehicle's curb weight and load capacity
- Preserves ground clearance for everyday and light off-road use
- Balances ride comfort with cargo and passenger stability
- Maintains clearance for the factory suspension travel and brake package
ANKUSI builds these wheels — we are the forging factory, not a reseller. For the Cadillac Escalade IQ (2025) we drill the 8x165.1 pattern and cut the centre bore to 116.7mm on our own CNC line, so the wheel hub-centres on the car with no spacer rings, in whatever diameter, width and offset you specify.

Flush Fitment
For a flush look with minimal rubbing, 24x10.5J ET30 is the recommended starting point on a stock or mildly lowered Cadillac Escalade IQ.
Maximum Aggressive Fitment
26x11J ET25 is a more aggressive reference setup. Beyond this, expect rubbing under compression without fender rolling or camber correction.

Decision Guide
1
What's your primary use? Daily commuting → Tier A/B. Weekend street driving → Tier B/C. Show or occasional track use → Tier D/E.
2
What's your budget? Under $800 → Tier A. $800-3,400 → Tier B/C. $3,400+ → Tier D/E.
3
How much does fuel economy matter? Very important → Tier A. Somewhat important → Tier B/C. Not a priority → Tier D/E.
4
Still unsure? Tier C (Balanced / Flush Fit) is the default choice for most Cadillac Escalade IQ owners.
Offset & Backspacing Reference
Backspacing is calculated as wheel width (in) ÷ 2 + offset (mm) ÷ 25.4 + 0.5 (flange allowance):
- OE: 24x9.5J ET35 → ~6.63″ backspacing
- Flush: 24x10.5J ET30 → ~6.93″ backspacing
- Max: 26x11J ET25 → ~6.98″ backspacing
A Note on Clearance
Final clearance depends on the exact tire model, suspension height, brake package, alignment and vehicle tolerances. A physical test fit is recommended before production.
Want to check a different width or offset before you order? Use our Offset & Backspacing Calculator to solve the numbers yourself, or looking for your exact Cadillac spec, or want a wheel built to a custom offset for your Cadillac Escalade IQ? Contact ANKUSI with your bolt pattern and offset target and we will confirm the correct forged wheel spec for your build.
Custom Forged Wheels for the Cadillac Escalade IQ (2025)
Everything above is reference data. If you want wheels actually built to it, that is what ANKUSI does: we are a forged wheel factory in Guangzhou, China, IATF 16949 and ISO 9001 certified, forging on our own 10,000-ton press and producing over 120,000 wheels a year. Forging blank, CNC machining, finishing, coating and inspection all happen in the same building — nothing is subcontracted and nothing is relabelled from another manufacturer.
Every set is cut to order, so the 8x165.1 pattern and the 116.7mm centre bore are machined for this car specifically rather than shimmed with adaptor rings. Diameter, width, offset, concavity, monoblock or multi-piece construction and the finish are all yours to choose — most Cadillac orders on this platform land somewhere between the 24x10.5J ET30 flush setup and the 26x11J ET25 aggressive setup referenced above.
We do not hold 8x165.1 wheels on a shelf — they are forged to order, which is why any offset, width and bore combination on this page is buildable rather than limited to a stock list.
Frequently Asked Questions
What bolt pattern (PCD) does the Cadillac Escalade IQ use?
The 2025 Cadillac Escalade IQ uses a 8x165.1 bolt pattern.
How many lug bolts does the Cadillac Escalade IQ use?
The Cadillac Escalade IQ uses a 8-lug bolt pattern (8x165.1), so you need a 8-lug forged wheel to bolt straight on.
What is the center bore size on the Cadillac Escalade IQ?
The Cadillac Escalade IQ's center bore is 116.7mm. If an aftermarket wheel has a larger center bore than this, hub-centric rings are recommended so the wheel centers on the hub itself rather than relying on the lug bolts alone.
What size are the factory (stock) wheels on the Cadillac Escalade IQ?
Factory wheels on the Cadillac Escalade IQ are 24x9.5J at ET35.
What is the biggest wheel size I can fit on my Cadillac Escalade IQ without rubbing?
The most aggressive fitment we recommend without fender work is 26x11J at ET25 offset. Going beyond this typically causes rubbing under compression unless you roll the fenders or add camber correction.
What does a flush wheel fitment look like on the Cadillac Escalade IQ?
For a flush look with minimal to no rubbing, we recommend 24x10.5J at ET30 offset as a starting point on a stock or mildly lowered Cadillac Escalade IQ.
Do I need wheel spacers for my Cadillac Escalade IQ?
No. ANKUSI forges each wheel to your exact target offset, including the flush or max specs above, so you get the correct fitment without stacking spacers. Spacers are typically only used to push out an existing OE-offset wheel without replacing it, which isn't necessary when you're ordering a custom-offset forged wheel.
How do I calculate wheel backspacing for my Cadillac Escalade IQ?
Backspacing (in inches) = wheel width (in) ÷ 2 + offset (mm) ÷ 25.4 + 0.5 (flange allowance). For example, the flush spec above works out to roughly 6.93" of backspacing.
What's the difference between wheel offset and backspacing?
Offset is the distance in millimeters from the wheel's true centerline to its mounting face (positive offset pulls the wheel in, negative pushes it out). Backspacing is the distance in inches from the mounting face to the back edge of the wheel barrel. They describe the same fitment from two different reference points, which is why ANKUSI lists both above — some shops and tuning guides quote offset, others quote backspacing.
Can I run staggered wheels (different sizes front and rear) on my Cadillac Escalade IQ?
The Cadillac Escalade IQ runs the same wheel size front and rear from the factory, so staggered fitment is not required. ANKUSI can still forge a staggered set (wider rear) on request if you want a more aggressive stance.
Vehicles With the Same Hub as the Cadillac Escalade IQ (8x165.1, 116.7 mm Bore)
In our database, 18 other vehicle entries from 4 makes use exactly the same 8x165.1 bolt pattern and 116.7 mm center bore. Factory wheels from these cars bolt on and center on the hub without rings; offset and width still have to be checked.
8x165.1 is used by 0.4% of the vehicle pages in our English fitment guide (29 of 6,503); 65.5% of those also use a 116.7 mm center bore.
Hub-Centric Rings for a 116.7 mm Center Bore
A wheel with a center bore larger than 116.7 mm needs a hub-centric ring. The most common combinations:
| Wheel bore | Ring size |
|---|---|
| 130.1 mm | 130.1 → 116.7 mm |
ANKUSI forged wheels are bored to exactly 116.7 mm for this vehicle, so no ring is needed.
