Tire size	Rim size and bolt pattern	Pressure, psi
225/50R17 93V	Rim 17x7.5 ET44 ~~5x114.3~~	33 psi
225/45R18 91V	Rim 18x7.5 ET44 ~~5x114.3~~	33 psi

How to read 93V: 93 is the load index (up to 1,433 lb / 650 kg per tire) and V the speed rating (up to 149 mph / 240 km/h). ET44 is the wheel offset: how far the mounting face sits from the rim centre, in millimetres.

What these columns mean

Rim size: Rim diameter × width in inches, and the factory offset (ET) in millimetres, e.g. 18x7.5 ET25.
Bolt pattern (PCD): Number of studs and the diameter of the circle they sit on. It must match exactly.
Center bore: Diameter of the hub hole. Larger aftermarket bores need hub-centric rings.
Pressure: Recommended cold inflation pressure for that axle, in psi.
Thread size: Lug bolt or nut thread — needed when buying aftermarket fasteners.
