Abstract

A vehicle wheel offset wheel bracket assembly includes a platform with a jack receiving surface, and wheel rim engaging arms, connected to and extending upwardly and outwardly from the platform toward a wheel to be raised, for engaging an under surface of an upper part of a rim of a wheel to be raised. The platform projects in a direction away from the wheel and a restraining chain, connected to the platform and to the lower part of the wheel keeps the platform from moving outwardly away from the wheel when a jack is raised against the platform.
