Wheel model
KMC Wheels KM542 Impact
The KM542 Impact is a one-piece cast aluminum wheel with a multi-spoke style and exposed lugs, giving it a technical, rugged look. More oriented toward trucks and mixed-use SUVs, it typically comes in 16 to 18 in. with widths from 7 to 9 in., and notably offers configurations in 6x139.7 (6x5.5) as well as other common bolt patterns like 6x120. Its dark finishes (satin black, satin black machined) reinforce its utilitarian character and hold up well visually in harsh conditions. The Impact stands out as an entry to mid-range option in the KMC family: a clean, functional design without faux beadlock, suited to owners looking for a more understated, go-anywhere look than the most aggressive off-road models. Target audience: pickups and SUVs for daily use and light off-road. In Quebec, its matte and black finishes limit the visual impact of salt; as always, verify offset, brake clearance and TPMS compatibility per vehicle.
