Buyer's Guide: Factory Specs For The CFMoto Tire Size, Wheel Size, Wheel Offset, And Bolt Pattern
Oct 19th 2022
Rims… wheel offsets… bolt patterns…. tire sizes..
These words can sound a bit gibberish when you are not a tire scientist.
Plus, those long tire-size numbers like ‘AT27×9.0-1460L’ only seem like your alphanumeric Facebook password and nothing else, if you are not a man of tire science.
This particularly gets strenuous when your CFMoto tire forgets how to tire and you scour the internet for answers to your very justifiable questions like
What tire size is the right tire size for my CFMoto ZForce or UForce?
What’s wheel offset and how would it affect my machine?
These are very valid questions for a tire-confused mind and it only feels like a double whammy when even Google is not much help too.
So, let us explain and elaborate on some pretty useful info, tips and precautions if you find yourself in the same situation.
CFMotoZForce and UForce Tire Sizing Guide
The way tires are measured are a little bit wonky, so let’s break it down so you know what your tire size actually represents.
CFMoto mostly uses standard format measuring for their tires. The standard factory tire size designation for the ZForce and UForce models are :

How To Measure CFMoto ZForce/UForce Tires
Tire Diameter in Inches
Overall Height of tire when inflated to optimum air pressure.
Tire Width in Inches
Overall width of the tire when inflated to optimum air pressure.
Wheel diameter in Inches
The full diameter of the wheel that will accept this tire.
Wheel Offsets in CFMoto ZForce and UForce
Wheel offsets are one of the most important things to consider when you are buying a new set of aftermarket wheels for your CFMoto ZForce or UForce.
First off, let's just give you a quick brief on what wheel offset is and the 3 different types. To understand wheel offset, let's draw an imaginary line in the middle of your wheel. Wheel offset is the difference from the back side of the mounting surface, to that imaginary centerline of the wheel you just drew.
1. Zero Wheel Offset in CFMoto ZForce and UForce
2. Negative Wheel Offset in CFMoto ZForce and UForce:
If you move the mounting surface more inward, you will have a negative offset.
3. Positive offset in CFMoto ZForce and UForce
If the mounting surface is moved outward and you will have a positive offset.
How Can Wheel Offsets Affect Your CFMoto Performance?
Wheel offsets are generally beneficial when you are looking to alter the size of your tires.
Some vehicles are not designed to have big tires on them.
With bigger tires, obviously, you would need more room to turn and maneuver, especially for the front tires, without rubbing and scrubbing the inner body of your UTV.
A negative offset is the best way to do just that.
Aesthetically speaking, nothing beats the coolest look of deep dishes with a negative offset; the sticking-out tires add to the sporty look of your CFMoto.
Plus, negative offsets provide more stability if you are looking for anything such.
But also keep in mind, with a negative wheel offset, your CV boots, and brake lines are too exposed to sticks and staff, which could possibly be severed if you often ride extreme offroading trails.
A positive wheel offset is beneficial when you want to tuck in the tires and save your brake lines and CV Axle/Boots from offroad damage.
Bolt Pattern CFMoto ZForce/UForce
CFMoto machines use a common wheel bolt pattern of 4x110mm.
