Overview
The TIS Offroad 544BM wheel in 20×8.25, part number TIS544BM-28281RO1, is an aluminum directional wheel in black/milled finish. It has an 8 on 6.5 bolt pattern, a -198 offset, a 121.7 center bore and 3.17 inch backspacing.
This is the narrower 8.25-inch width in the 544 series from TIS Offroad, which the company offers in a broad range of colors and sizes. Because the offset and backspacing differ from the wider 544BM sizes, check them carefully against your setup.
Key features
- Directional style
- Black/milled finish
- Aluminum construction
- 8 on 6.5 bolt pattern with 121.7 center bore
Narrow wheels and offset
Width and offset work together. A narrow wheel with a large negative offset moves the mounting face outward, which changes the tire’s position in the fender and the feel of steering. Narrow wheels also suit some tire sizes better than others, so check the tire width rating before choosing a tire.
Before fitting, check fender clearance and the brake caliper at full steering lock. Measure the room behind the mounting surface, since a wheel that sits outward can rub on the suspension or outer body. Mounting with the correct lug seat type and a clean hub face reduces the risk of a loose or wobbling wheel.
- Check the fender edge at full lock
- Confirm caliper clearance before mounting
- Clean the hub face before fitting

Vehicle fitment
No vehicle is confirmed for this wheel, and it is a universal fit. Check the 8 on 6.5 bolt pattern, the -198 offset and the 121.7 center bore against your vehicle’s hub and clearances before choosing it.
The -198 offset and 3.17 inch backspacing are far from the other 544BM sizes, so verify them rather than assuming a match. Confirm your vehicle’s year, model and trim before ordering.
Installation notes
Confirm the 121.7 center bore against your hub and check wheel clearance with the -198 offset before the wheel goes on.
