Is a wheel measured from rim to rim across the center? > Is a wheel measured from rim to rim across the center? bead to bead, actually. Don't know why you're asking, but don't forget about offset and bolt circle either. nate  Signaturereplace "fly" with "com" to reply. http://home.comcast.net/~njnagel 050128 2002 - Nate Nagel posted: >> Is a wheel measured from rim to rim across the center? > > bead to bead, actually.

Ah, I thought you were talking about width, sorry. The overall diameter of the wheel will be a little larger than the nominal size, so if you measure a wheel at, say, 15-3/8" (to pull a number out of my a.s) it is a 15" rim. Definitely not a 16" in this example. nate Signaturereplace "fly" with "com" to reply. http://home.comcast.net/~njnagel I think wheels are going to be the very last things to go metric. Even metric tires are partly SAE so long as diameter is expressed in good, ol' fashioned inches. |
