: Can you guys please give a brief explanation of these terms. I see them alot on this page, what is their significance when purchasing new wheels?

The center bore is the dimension of the inside diameter of the wheel. You want this to match the hub of the car. The offset is the measurement from the mounting plate of the wheel to the center line of the wheel. To fit correctly both measurements need to be correct for whatever car the wheel is going on. Also, the wheels we carry for the car will be listed on our web site for the given car. You can see the wheels we carry for your car with the correct offset and center bore listed on our website for your car. If I can help let me know. Thank you Jim 800-428-8355 ext 364
