How do I find the offset I need for my rims on my van?

Looking for a used set of rims, and am having trouble as there is very little clearance for the front brake caliper.

I tried one rim and the bolt pattern was right but obviously not the offset.

Tried google but could not come up with anything concrete.

 

I measured and come up with 100mm offset. (back space). Why not just find some other nice OEM chryser rims?

 

I want the rims for snow tires, so I do not want anything fancy.

So you measure from the back of the rim where the bolt holes are to the outside?

 

so just go get some rims from the junkyard and put your snow tires on them. don't monkey around with other company rims, there a plenty minivans in the JY.

www.car-part.com will answer all you questions.

 

could you stop posting on my thread, unless you actually know what you are talking about.

1) I have not been able too find rims at the junk yard. I have called like 7-8 yards and they do not have OEM rims for an '05

2) how do you know I am monkeying around with other company rims, 'cuz I am not.

3) so you did not answer the question about how to measure the offset. last night you seemed to be able to tell me the measurement for a 2005 Dodge Grand Caravan real quick.

So a little honest help, rather than assumsions would be appreciated.

Thanks

I answered your question on offset. infact you could have done that your self with a tape measure.

I searched car-part.com and come up with over 40 junkyard within 150 miles from my house with steel wheels showing interchange 2001-2007 many with prices under $25 each. aluminum rims are listed more year specific as the style changes every year. if you don't care what year style they are buying a set of 4 you can go 01-07 and fit.
