I have a set of HX wheels but I'm not sure from where to where I'm supposed to measure from. I measured it from edge to edge across and it was like 6". Seems like thats wider than I think. Anyone know?

Pretty sure they are 14x5.5 but I would measure from lip to lip. You could always put a bigger tire on it and make it a little wider.

To my knowledge, you measure from inside of each lip(where the beed of the tire sits on the rim).

I've fit 205/55/14s on an hx rim. You could squeeze 215s on, but man 215/60 is going to be a tall *** tire!
