16x6 Wheels and Rims

About 16x6 Wheels and Rims

A 6 inch wide wheel is a period size for a 14 or 15 inch classic, and the tire is 185 to 205 wide. Offset decides where a 16x6 ends up. The same wheel tucks at one offset and sits flush at another, and the caliper behind it sets the floor.

3 designs on this site come in 16x6, and the same diameter comes in 4 other widths, 16x8, 16x7 and 16x7.5 among them. Most 16x6 designs are drilled for 6x139.7, 8x165 and 5x127. The same 16x6 sits three different ways at three offsets, so the number that matters is offset against your fenders and brakes. Pick your car and the page keeps only the sets that clear.
