Are there wheels for different uses like hauling, racing, overlanding, off-roading, etc?

    Hey everyone,
    Ive seen wheels that say "racing wheels" on them but ive never seen wheels that say things like "overlanding" or "off-roading" wheels so I was wondering if there are such a thing as overlanding or off-roading wheels and are they meant to support higher amounts of weight than racing wheels?

    Since my truck is red + black I was thinking of getting something like this: https://www.carid.com/fuel-wheels/d755-reaction-1pc-gloss-black-candy-red-accents-3465018986.html

    I wanna use my truck mostly for overlanding, camping, fishing, and I wanna install a camper shell + full armor on it (skids, + metal front & back bumper + roof rack).

    Wheels are weight rated so if you wheel or overland you need to make sure added armor, racks, fuel, water, gear are within those limits. Some lightweight alloy rims have lower weight ratings.
