A wheel rim consists of the outer rim (the outermost circle), the spokes (bars connecting outer to inner rim), the inner rim, and the hub (center). The bolt pattern determines how the rim connects to the wheel hub. The diameter is measured in inches and refers to the outer rim diameter. Width refers to the rim width, also in inches.
