Are 16 or 17 inch wheels better?

It depends on your intended purpose and the application.

For Trucks: If you’re debating if 16 or 17 inch wheels are better for offroading the answer is 16” if you’re rock crawling or either if you’re not. The reason 16” will be better for rock crawling is due to the fact that with a 16” wheel you’ll end up with a tire with a bigger sidewall which helps grip the rocks.

For Cars: If you’re debating if 16 or 17 inch wheels are better for daily driving it also depends on if you prefer ride quality over aesthetics. The 16” tire will likely have a bigger sidewall which will make for a more comfortable ride but the 17” will require a lower profile tire which will make for a nicer appearance but harsher ride.

The offset of the wheel is a measurement taken from the centerline of the wheel to the mounting pad of the wheel. The higher the offset the closer the wheel is to your chassis. If you used our Search By Vehicle tool we will only show you offset ranges that are within range for your vehicle.

If you used our Search By Vehicle tool please read the below:

For Cars: The offset ranges offered will result in wheels that will never stick out of your fenders. If you prefer a Flush with the fender look a lower offset will help achieve that.

For Trucks: The offset ranges offered will result in either a flush or slight poke look. If you prefer for the wheels not to poke outside the fenders look for the highest offset available.

For Lifted Trucks: Considering lifted vehicles require larger tires we’re required to keep the wheels as far away from the chassis as possible to prevent rubbing. Depending on your lift and the size of the tire required, the offset ranges offered will result in either a flush look or in some cases will stick outside the fenders. The larger the lift and tire size required the more the wheels will sit outside the fenders. If you’re looking for the wheels to stick outside the fenders look for the lowest possible offset being offered as well as the widest wheel.
