Lay the wheel on a flat surface and measure from inside side of bolt-circle to surface. This measurement is off-set.

If a tire is on the wheel, bridge across the back side of the wheel with a straight-edge and measure to this.

All wheels, whether factory or aftermarket, are O.E.M. offset unless otherwise specified, providing they are for the vehicle they were meant for.

I hope this helps.

I don't have the ability to take my wheels off my truck right now and was looking at aftermarket rims. I was hoping someone could tell me what the OEM offset is so I can find the right rims.

stock wheel offset

I believe that the 7" steel wheels have an offset of 4".
