The offset of a wheel is the distance from its hub mounting surface to the centerline of the wheel. The offset can be one of three types (measured in millimeters).*

Zero Offset

The hub mounting surface is even with the centerline of the wheel.

Positive

The hub mounting surface is toward the front or wheel side of the wheel. Positive offset wheels are generally found on front wheel drive cars and newer rear drive cars.

Negative

The hub mounting surface is toward the back or brake side of the wheels centerline. "Deep dish" wheels are typically a negative offset.

If the offset of the wheel is not correct for the car, the handling can be adversely affected. When the width of the wheel changes, the offset also changes numerically. If the offset were to stay the same while you added width, the additional width would be split evenly between the inside and outside. For most cars, this won't work correctly. We have test fitted thousands of different vehicles for proper fitment. Our extensive database allows our sales staff to offer you the perfect fit for your vehicle.

Replacement
Tire Guide

For safety and good performance, you must take care when selecting replacement tires. Disregarding any of these safety precautions and instructions may result in tire failure or explosion and serious personal injury or death.

You are Responsible

YOU are always responsible for the tires installed on your vehicle.

Ultimately, you are responsible for the tires installed on your vehicle. The fitments listed here are only general guidelines. Never assume you can simply substitute the tires shown in these charts. Using the wrong size tire - whether too big or too small for your vehicle - can lead to sudden tire failure and may result in loss of vehicle control and serious personal injury or death.

What is Plus Sizing?

Plus-Sizing (plus) - The intentional act of installing larger diameter wheels with lower profile tires to vastly "Improve" and "Enhance" the HANDLING, PERFORMANCE, and APPEARANCE of one's vehicle. With the correct application, plus sizing will enhance the performance of any vehicle. The lower aspect ratio (shorter sidewall) and increased contact patch (wider footprint) result in improved overall handling and appearance. Staying close as possible to the original tires overall diameter maintains the vehicles computer settings, this is essential for correct speedometer, ABS, traction control, automatic transmission, and other computer controlled operations of today's modern vehicles.
