How to measure wheel offset - FirebirdPhil - 04-06-2021

So for some reason you need to know the offset of your wheels???? Well its easy lol:

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.
