A vehicle shock tower component including a top portion, an upper portion, and a lower portion is provided. The top portion defines a plane. The upper portion may include one or more upper spokes having a thickness based on a stiffness ratio to disperse load paths resulting from a force application to the upper portion. The upper spokes may extend substantially perpendicularly from the plane and an intersection spoke region may extend substantially perpendicularly from the plane. The lower portion may include one or more lower spokes extending at an angle from the one or more upper spokes and the intersection spoke region to a base portion for securing to a vehicle wheel well. Each of the spokes may be aligned with a load path defined by application of a force to the top portion in which the force is applied in a direction substantially perpendicular to the plane.
