I hope you get yours soon! 4WheelParts called me and said the shipment coming in contains no Bronze Vector 5’s (which is what I ordered) and all of the grey and black sets are spoken for so I am, best case scenario 10+ weeks away from seeing my wheels.Icon told me this AM that Vector 5 containers are now pushed back to 24 Sept. Once they receive the containers, they will turn around to direct-ship for customers who purchased from other re-sellers (Amazon, DT, 4WP, etc). Icon is only expecting a limited re-stocking of Vector 5s, and it will be first in-first out for order fulfillment. They don’t know when to expect the next shipment of Vector 5s after 24 Sept. I ordered 4 weeks ago and was told my order was “just on the edge, can’t confirm” whether I would be part of 24 Sept or the next container delivery.
I want my #$%! wheels Icon!
Went ahead and cancelled my order, sticking with the stock 20’s and will have 35x11.50R20 Open Country AT3’s here tomorrow.
Just noticed that Slee has bronze Vectors in stock at the moment if you still want to pursue that option.
Awesome thanks for the heads up. I just tried to call to see if they actually have them on hand. Lots of sites showing them in stock, but its a different story when you try to buy. My experience with SLEE however has been if they show it in stock, they have it.
I love my Icons
I have the same wheels. I like them, but I don't love them. I've lost too many center caps, and I still cannot understand why they'd make a 5x150 wheel with a bore >110mm...

Always thought it was strange that they made the 6 speed 117 and all the others 110.
I'm pretty sure it's because the center cap has a lip that keeps it in the wheel.
The original center caps snapped into the metal ring with some plastic tabs and had some cheap glue holding them. I've lost 5 or 6 of those as the plastic flexes leaving just the ring behind. Even after using some gorilla glue on them after they'd come loose they would still eventually fall off. Icon just sends me replacements for free when this happens. The last batch had screws holding the plastic center cap to the metal ring and those have so far held up.
Really wish the center cap would've been bolt on. I do like the look of the wheels but TBH if I was looking now I'd put more focus on a 110mm bore. I did have some custom aluminum 110mm-to-116.5mm hub spacers machined early on but they will only work if you don't use the center caps. (If someone would like these, PM me and I'll sell them at cost... $30).

The center cap on the Rebound is held on by screws. Two of the screws on the outside edge of the center cap are real. If you try and turn the plastic fake ones they break off.
Yeah I like that design a lot. The Six Speed wheels I have are the push-through center cap which is a stupid design.

My Rebounds are a perfect fit for the hub bore and no issues with the center caps (as long as you don't try to turn the plastic bolt headsYeah I like that design a lot. The Six Speed wheels I have are the push-through center cap which is a stupid design.

). Perfect backspacing as well, tires still sit right at the fender line so no crazy rock chips. I am happy with them so far, but they have not seen heavy wheeling yet.
