17x6 Wheels and Rims

About 17x6 Wheels and Rims

Six inches wide is period correct on an old small wheel, and the tire that goes with it is narrow by anything modern. Offset is what decides where a 17x6 ends up. The same wheel tucks at one offset and sits flush at another, and it's the caliper behind it that sets the floor.

Tell us the car and you'll only see the ones that clear the brakes and the fenders.

Common questions

What is a 17x6 wheel for?

It's a period width, so you'll see it under a restored classic and almost nothing built since.

What tire fits a 17x6 wheel?

A 205 is the usual starting point on this width, and plenty of people go wider than that. Add tires to a set and we'll size them to the wheel and to your car, then it ships mounted and balanced.

What offset do I need on a 17x6?

It depends on the car. A higher offset tucks the wheel in, a lower one moves it out toward the fender. Tell us what you drive and you'll see which offsets clear, stock or aggressive.

Will 17x6 wheels fit your car without rolling the fenders?

It comes down to the offset you pick and to your car. Tell us the year, make and model and you'll get a straight answer for yours, stock or aggressive.
