Does the Provider ST235/85R16 Radial Tire with 16" Viking Aluminum Wheel Have Offset

Question:

Can you tell me how the wheel offset is measured? We have a 2006 PJ Gooseneck trailer that takes 235 85/R16 tires and currently have steel wheels. We are wanting to change to an aluminum wheel but we need to make sure that the tire and wheel combination will bolt up without contact to the inside of the fender well. Thank you

The majority of trailer wheels have no offset so this is not typically an issue for most. The Provider ST235/85R16 Radial Tire w 16" Viking Aluminum Wheel part # A16RGBML for example that you were looking at which is a great option has no offset so it would work just fine.

In regards to measuring offset, this is simply done by measure the distance to the hub face from the center line of the wheel but again not something that is really needed on trailers.
