Hey guys. I have a 2018 Honda p5 with 26 inch Duro tires on stock rims. I saw a good deal on A set of rims. They are 6+1 off set, 7 inch wide. All four are the same. Would these add width to my p5 or would they be like stock?

Thanks

Mine are 5-2 rims and I’d think 6-1s would be even better (for stability) not that it’s a huge concern for what I do, can’t remember offset of stockers, sorry. Mine is now I wanna say 55 or 56” wide and just squeezes between the wheel well on my 97 Powerstroke so I’m happy. My continued mantra is Radials tires in 12” rim if you want a smoother ride, 14s if in deep mud. Then shocks like Elkas or W.E.s so changes the ride handling of these little beasts.

Stock off=set is near 1 1/2 inch .5+2's are 2 inches out past the hub face.!" would be a shade narrower than stock.I've not seen 6+1 before.

So 6+1 would be 1 inch out from the hub? And stock is 1 1/2 ? Sound like I need to go the other way to widen my P5. Maybe that’s why the rims were so cheap. Thanks

55 would be a good width. I think I’m at 51 or 52 with the bigger tires I have.

Keerap @Jevin, I have misinformed you had that backwards.... I’ll measure mine today as it’s sitting in the truck right now. I’ll double check mine are 5-2s as well. My apologies.

No worries, think I understand what I need now.

6x1 means 6” out 1” spacing out so it would be wider than stock. Someone made a post on this subject.

NOT! Sorry to disagree but...
The 6 " is inside the axle flange and the 1" is outside the flange. The stock REAR wheels are 3+4 - so 3 inches inside flange and 4" ouside. So you will have 2 inches LESS width PER SIDE.
I Just installed a set of 2"+5" ITP Delta Steel on my P500 with a set of Big Horn 2.0 (not clones) size 27 x 11R-12. Tires are actually 27.75" tall and barely clear everything but they DO clear. With a set of 1.5" spacers on rear only I have about 3.5-4" outside the fenders all the way around.

The first # is always the back spacing.
So, 6 is the back spacing.
So a 6+1 offset would be narrower than stock.

This is a 5+2

I appreciate you posting this @someguy1313, as I just now grabbed one for $80. Shipping was $50, but the total was anywhere from ~$50 to ~$90 less than the usual places (SXS Sports, RMATV, etc.). Thanks!

I know this is the P500/520 forum, but I run this exact wheel on my '23 Talon 1000R2 FLV wrapped with AMS Evil M1 32x10-15 tires.

When I ordered mine last fall, I ordered four tires & wheels, figuring I'd pick up another one for a spare later on.

IIRC, when I was doing my research on which wheel to buy, this wheel in the 15x7 4/137 6+1 is actually right around a 5.2+1.8. I run 1.5" wheel spacers in the rear only and no spacer up front. Front to rear track is near perfect. Puts it right at 72" wide.
