Offset of Wheel Used on Kenda Wheel/Tire Combo # AM3S334

Question:

Is it safe to assume all the Kendra rims have a center point offset? That is, the back surface of the wheels hub is located in the center of the rims width, or to say it another way, a 5.5inch wide rim has a 2.75inch offset.

The wheels we offer like the wheel used on the # AM3S334 you mentioned, and HWT all have a zero offset, unless stated otherwise in the product description.

A zero offset wheel would have the wheel mounting pad centered on the width of the rim. A positive offset moves the tire closer to the trailer, a negative offset moves the tire away from the trailer.

I have linked you to a help article that has more information about trailer tires.
