How to measure wheel offset
How to measure wheel offset
04-06-2020, 11:51 AM
The offset should be marked on the wheel.
However you can measure it yourself with the wheel off the car.
Lay the wheel & tyre on the ground (outside up) and measure the distance from the ground to the hub mounting face using a tape rule (DIM A).
Turn the wheel over (outside down) and measure the distance from the ground to the hub mounting face again (DIM B).
Subtract DIM B from DIM A and divide the answer by 2 to get the offset.
EG: DIM A = 167.5mm; DIM B = 97.5mm; DIM A - DIM B = 70mm; offset = 35mm
Simples.
