when i notice tire size i see 235/30/20 or 255/30/20. but when i look at rims i see 20x8.5??? what does the 8.5 mean and how would i compare that to tire sizes?

thanks

8.5" is the width of the wheel. Offset is also one of the determining factors for fitnent, along with the center bore.
The 235/30 requires a 8"-9" wide wheel while the 255/30 should be installed on a 8.5"-9.5" wheel.

Here's some reading:

wat are the offsets?

bored7one4

offset is 35 the sales rep told me.

bored7one4

sale rep was telling me if i want to fit the wheels on the car i will need to roll the rear fender with 20x8.5 35 offset

bored7one4

can anyone tell me if i need to roll out my rear fender ?

My opinion is that an 8.5" wide wheel with a 35 offset will move the wheels 5/8" out farther which would interfere with the fender, especially with the larger tires.

which tire do you plan to run

235/30-20 requires no rolling
245/30-20 requires rolling or -1.5 degree negative camber
255/30-20 requires -2 degree negative camber and fender rolling

20x8.5 +35 all around with tein and 235 series tire should not rub


the 235 stands for the tread width

tread width/sidewall width/diameter
