Or call the place you're ordering from or Rota to check it out... WHen you get them, you can measure them

It's probably 6.5'' wide if it's a 15'' wheel, or 7'' wide if it's a 16'' wheel - ask the company you're ordering from if Rota even makes a 7'' wide version in the 15'' wheel if you've got a 15'' wheel currently.

Also inside the rim is usually a stick with the wheel dimensions on it such as width, circumference, and offset.

I would assume the 15 is the height 65 = 6.5 width and 40 is the offset????

Looks to be the case.

Again just double check - I don't think Rota ever offered any other width than 6.5'' for their 15'' Sub Zero wheels.

Yes, 6.5". I believe I've only seen 15x7 on Slips? But definitely not on SubZero's.
