While sporty wheel rims look nice on the right car, they can be an expensive accessory. Some car wheels can cost over $1,000 per wheel, depending on the make and model. If you want to upgrade from stock wheels to custom rims, you need to be aware of the following terms.
Bolt Pattern
The bolt pattern or bolt circle refers to diameter of the circle that the wheel lugs form on the exterior of the wheel. There are two numbers in a bolt pattern: the number of holes on a wheel and the diameter of the circle. The bolt pattern is important because it needs to align with the car body or you will not be able to use the new Lamborghini wheels on your car.
Plus Sizing
If you want a sportier look for your wheels, then knowing what plus sizing is will help. Plus sizing increases the size of the wheel’s inner line’s diameter. The offset not only gives them a sportier appearance, but it provides more stability and control when steering. If your current tires don’t fit the new Lamborghini wheels, then you must purchase some that do.
Inching Up
Inching up means making the wheel rim’s diameter larger while also matching the tire so the height of the car stands the same. The sidewall of the tire will be thinner, which gives the wheel a larger contact patch. This helps to improve the car’s overall performance and gives it better maneuverability and traction. It also provides the car with a sharper appearance.
Knowing these terms will help you buy the correct wheel size for your vehicle, no matter whether you drive a Dodge or a Lamborghini.
