Common Questions
What is “Plus Sizing”?
Plus sizing refers to tires that are wider and have a shorter sidewall. The result is a larger contact patch and a sportier look.
Why do drivers choose Plus Sizing?
Drivers choose Plus Sizing to improve the steering response, handling, cornering ability, and the look of the vehicle.
What is “Inch Up”?
Inch Up is the process of mounting a lower aspect ratio tire and larger diameter wheel on the vehicle. This creates a larger contact patch and a shorter sidewall.
How can I inch up?
Talk to your local OK Tire dealer. They have a wide selection of sizes and can provide a precision fit using the latest technology.
What is Offset?
The offset of a wheel is the distance from its hub mounting surface to the centerline of the wheel.
What is Zero Offset?
The hub mounting surface is even with the centerline of the wheel.
What is Positive Offset?
The hub mounting surface is toward the front, or wheel side, of the wheel. Positive offset wheels are generally found on front wheel drive cars and newer rear drive cars.
What is negative offset?
The hub mounting surface is toward the back or brake side of the wheels’ centerline.
What happens if the offset is not correct?
Incorrect offsetting can affect the performance of your vehicle. We’re experts in ensuring everything is installed correctly.
Are the bolt patterns the same for every wheel?
Every wheel has a different bolt pattern. Some wheels have more than one bolt pattern to accommodate multiple fitments.
