    hey can you clear my doubt. my suzuki swift has 38 stock offset. what will be negative and positive offsets compared to it like anything greater then 38 will be positive offset and less then 38 negative or is it something else. i tried googling it but all it tells that a positive offset will push the wheel inside and negative will push it out, but nothing on how they works wrt car's stock offset. also what is zero offset. plz reply ASAP. thank you

    So does that mean backspacing and offset are inversely proportional?

    I am looking to buy your aew-3387-8812 17" Boss with 2mm Offset - Not sure if the Hub Size will fit a 1975 Dodge Dart Sport Coupe. Pls Assist

      +Teddy Jaramillo,
      The OE backspacing on your car is 3.75” (+6mm). The backspacing on this wheel is 4.5” making it sit to the inside further giving you a potential clearance problem to a tie rod or control arm. It is usually best to stick by the OE back spacing to be safe.

    I have a 1986 F150 4x4. Will Pro comp series 152s 15x8 with 31 10.5 in tires work?

    • @SummitRacing

      +Shawn Billings ,
      Yes, make sure the wheel uses 4 - 4.5” of back spacing for best fitment.

      Hi Luis,
      Here is some information on measuring:
      help.summitracing.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/4642/kw/wheel%20fitment
      We do not offer a fitment guide for the 1950 International. It would be best to measure for your specific application.

      +alex Araujo ,
      Most times the best way to know if a wheel will fit properly is to measure or use a fitment simulator such as this one… www.summitracing.com/parts/php-01201/overview/

    how do i know if a tire will fit the width of a rim?

    • @SummitRacing
      @SummitRacing  9 років тому

      shylildude,
      www.summitracing.com/ has attributes that show approved rim width or the manufacturers sites will have a suggested rim width.

    • @shylildude
