How do you tell what size rims to buy for a set of tires you already own?
Read the side of the tire. It should have a number such as 225/70/R15 The 225 is in millimeters, the 70 is a fraction or 70 % of the tread width the R is for Radial tire type and the 15 is the rim diameter. You can also measure the inside of the rim not to include the rim bead. Be sure to tell the rim manufacture the tire size to get a proper fit for the tire width.
