Dimensions (DIM)
Definition of dimensions (DIM):
A = Offset The distance measured from the bal-
ancer (“0” on the offset arm) to the inner
plane of the rim (inner weight location).
W = Width The width of the wheel at the rim
flanges, measured with the calipers as
shown in figure 32.
Note: Only use calipers provided by the wheel bal-
ancer manufacturer because others may not be the
same.
D = Diameter The diameter of the wheel as indi-
cated on the tire.
