Listed Offset of Trailer Tire Wheels

Updated 02/16/2017 | Published 02/15/2017

Question:

Viewed your video on the 13 inch rim or any rim, you did an excellent jod on rim description, Id, Od, center hole, bolt pattern size, carry cap., however you never mentioned the rim offset. This is important when customers want up-grade to a larger rim size. Say 14, or 15 inches

Trailer wheels like those available on our site usually have a zero offset, meaning the rim of a trailer wheel lines up directly under the center of the wheel. So when that is the case, there will not be an offset specification in the description or one mentioned in the demonstration video.

For available wheels that do have an offset, it will be listed in the title and product description of the wheel. For example, the 13" x 4-1/2" Dexstar Conventional Steel Wheel # AM20214 lists a positive offset of 0.5 inches.
