-Check the driver's side door.The wheel size for your vehicle is listed on the inside frame of the driver's door.
-Use the tire size formula. The last number in a tire size indicates the wheel diameter in inches. For example, in the tire size "225/45R17", the 17 indicates the wheel diameter. new tires and rims wheels rims tires wheel and tire packages
Select "Centerbore" then OE Hub"
Factory rims are hub-centric, which means the wheel is precisely mounted on the hub. In a hub-centric connection, the weight of the vehicle is supported by the hub and wheel and not the lug nuts. The lug nuts merely secure the wheel to the hub mounting plate. Always choose wheels with a hub-centric connection as it eliminates the chance of lug nut shearing and the subsequent vibrations as well as safety hazards. new tires and rims wheels rims tires wheel and tire packages
A bolt pattern is the number of lug holes in a wheel and the distance between them. Bolt patterns are usually expressed in two numbers: the number of lugs on the wheel and the distance between each lug in inches. new tires and rims wheels rims tires wheel and tire packages
ET explained-Offset is stamped on a wheel as an ET value, which refers to the German phrase “Einpress Tiefe.” ET indicates the distance between the mounting surface and the geometric centre of the wheel (the symmetry axle), usually expressed in millimeters.
Customizing your ride with aftermarket wheels and tires is a fun way to make your car or truck your own. If you’re shopping around, it helps to have a basic understanding of wheel offset.
Proper offset assures your new package has enough clearance so nothing rubs against the suspension, brakes or vehicle body (like fenders, bumpers and mud flaps).
It’s also important for driving safety, since the wrong offset can reduce vehicle stability or interfere with braking.
Offset refers to how your car’s or truck’s wheels and tires are mounted and sit in the wheel wells.
Backspacing is the distance your wheels and tires need to accommodate both offset and wheel width. It’s especially important to factor in when the new package you want is wider than what came on your vehicle.
Getting offset and backspacing measurements right means you’ll get a wheel and tire package that offers the looks, handling and performance you’re after.
Getting them wrong can mean big problems.

..Also known as minus sizing, is the practice of using smaller wheels and narrower tires for winter driving. This can be a good idea because it can:
1. Aluminum wheels are light. Steel wheels, on the other hand, are heavy. That extra weight can make your vehicle a little less agile and slightly less quick to accelerate.
2. Aluminum wheels won’t rust. Steel wheels, on the other hand, do rust. Aluminum wheels add a clean, polished and customized look to your ride.
3. A second set of wheels is convenient. A seasonal rotation is faster and easier than a changeover. The only way it could get more convenient is if you stored your tires and wheels with B'n'R Tires Inc. new tires and rims wheels rims tires wheel and tire packages
Steel wheels are an economical solution due to mass production and the low cost of steel. They come in very basic designs and may require plastic hub covers to get the “aluminum wheel” look. Steel wheels require little to no maintenance.
Unfortunately, steel wheels are not made for every vehicle applications. Shop wheels by your vehicle type and find the right set for you. new tires and rims wheels rims tires wheel and tire packages
