Invest in one of the wheel fitment tools that helps YOU decide what works best for your application. This fits your hub and represents the offset, diameter and width of tire you would want to use. The small investment here, is a fortune saver later.

Summit Racing has the tool, it runs about $90.00, but that keeps you from buying $200.00+ rims and not getting the right fit. Also, you could use it many times with many different vehicles.
