Can anybody explain to me exactly what the numbers mean in tire sizing such as 255/70/16?
I got the 16 part...I'm only partially illiterate...lol.
Also, when the offset of a wheel is described, just what does that mean? If it's +25, does that mean there's 25mm to the outside of the vehicle, whereas a negative offset would be further in the wheel wells?
It's hard to believe I've gone this many years without knowing these things because I was too embarassed to ask, but not anymore....I've gotten so used to embarassing myself that it doesn't bother me at all...:wacko: :lol:
