Wheel help

Okay so right now I have 16 inch rims as wanted to go with say like 18 inch rims maybe 17. I am running 315/75r16 ties now. When I search that tire size only 16 inch rims pop up. Now if I went with a 325 size tire I think I find more sizes for rims. Now the rims in looking at inly come in a maximum of 9 in wide. Will I be able to fit that size tire on that rim ? Next off how to the off sets work ? The bigger the negative number the more offset the. 0 no offset and the bigger the positivr number the less offset ? Thanks !

Greetings BigBuckMafia,

If you are searching for wheels that will fit a 315/75/16, a 16" diameter wheel should be the only wheel that will show up. Any tire will have a rim width range, and a 315/75/16 will have a rim width range of 8"-10" or 8"-11", depending on the tire. A 325 will obviously accept a wheel slightly wider. 9"-12" tire depending.

Almost every wheel that will carry a tire like this will have a 0 or more negative offset. The closer to 0 or more negative offset you use, the further out from the vehicle the wheel will be.

Here is a link to offset info

Hope this helps and I would be glad to help out further if you have more questions.

-AJ
