To measure a wheel you will want to measure from bead seat to bead seat both for the diameter and for the width. If you check out the review video I attached of the Taskmaster Modular Wheel w/ +0.08 Offset # TA35ZR you can see out video team member measure the wheel starting at the 1:42 mark. This wheel has an 8 on 6-1/2 inch bolt pattern.
I have attached some helpful articles on how to measure tires and wheels as well for you to check out. If you are looking for a replacement tire as well just let me know what size is on the tire sidewall, for example 215/75R17.5, and I can make a recommendation for you.
