wheel help

this is gna sound like a noob question but wot are ppl talkin bout when they say shiznit like 16x9 16x7.5
i knw they are talkin bout wheels but wot exactly does it mean?

16 x 9 Would be 16 inch diameter and 9 width/depth

ah cheers

It's ET where it gets really confusing lol

lol ok

even more confusing that tyres are metric and imperial (ie 16" 225/45/16)

why would anyone do that!!!

yes you do get 100% metric wheels and tyres, but mixing units of measure is wrong!!!

if you are really bored you could go read a few pages relating to wheel sizes and offsets then you will be head up bum!

Also the Width of a wheel is measured across where the tyre sits - not the total width of the wheel.

Add about an inch to the width to get the total

ok jst always see ppl usin shiznit like 6x9 and stuff an never understood wtf they were goin on bout

mr lemon wot obd is ur engine?

should be the same as yours OBD2..

its really easy to tell the difference if you know what your looking for!

all obd means is the diagnostics port type and communication language, but on the switch over they also changed the engine wiring and emission control system i think.
