CUVs, or Crossover Utility Vehicles, have become more common in today’s off road scene due to their versatility and ability to easily adapt back to everyday life. They combine the best features of SUVs, like space and a higher ride height with the easy handling of a smaller car. Whether it’s commuting during the week or heading out for a weekend trip, CUVs are built to keep up with a wide range of lifestyles, which explains why it has become a go-to choice for a lot of weekend warriors.
One of the biggest advantages CUVs have over larger trucks and SUVs is their efficiency. Thanks to their unibody construction, CUVs are typically lighter, easier to maneuver, and more fuel-efficient. They are also usually more affordable than larger SUVs, but don’t sacrifice the bigger cargo space or the performance capabilities that matter on and off the road. Beyond their daily drive practicality, many CUVs also offer similar off-roading features as SUVs, such as powerful drivetrains and increased ground clearance for off road terrain. Currently, some of the most popular CUVs are the Honda CR-V, Subaru Forester and Outback, Toyota Rav4, Bronco Sport, Honda Passport, Jeep Cherokee and Compass, and Hyundai Kona.
Given the flexibility of CUVs, the wheels on them should be just as adaptable. If you’re looking for wheels that can handle everything from off-road adventures to daily commutes, our Terra (FT) Series is the perfect fit. Specifically, the FT109 and FT110 were designed with CUV fitments in mind, built to handle tough conditions while maintaining clearance for your everyday drives.
The FT109 is the perfect wheel to bring a rally-inspired look to your CUV. Its expanding radial spoke design and recessed center draw inspiration from the aesthetics of motorsports, which gives you a bold, distinctive look. But it’s not just the style of the wheel that makes it perfect for your CUV; the integrated structural ring and reinforced composition make it incredibly strong, reducing the risk of cracks and bends during off-road adventures. They are currently available in 17” and 18” diameters with a +35 offset, designed specifically to accommodate the specific fitments of CUVs, ensuring both performance and clearance. Our signature Satin Black (SB) and Satin Bronze (Z) finishes are offered for the FT109, making it a wheel that performs as well as it stands out
The FT110 strikes the perfect balance between off-road capability and everyday driving, making it an ideal choice for CUVs. Its 9-spoke design with recessed accents gives the wheel a clean, structured look while reinforcing its strength for trail adventures. The simulated beadlock lip further emphasizes its rugged readiness, providing both durability and visual appeal. Engineered to handle tough terrain without compromising performance on the road, the FT110 is available in 17” and 18” diameters with a +35 offset, ensuring proper clearance and fit for a variety of CUVs. Offered in Satin Black (SB) and Satin Bronze (Z), the FT110 delivers dependable performance with a design that works as hard as your CUV.
Like CUVs, Atturo Tires’ Trail Blade ATS is built on versatility. These all-terrain tires perform just as confidently on the street as they do in snow, mud, or rocky trails. Their deep tread blocks and wide channel flashes keep debris from getting stuck, and their 3D sipes allow for even wear of the tire while improving your drive stability. Paired with Fittipaldi Off Road wheels, they provide CUV drivers a setup that’s capable of handling wherever the day takes them. And we know you see those photos. These setups don’t just look good–they drive like it.
