A dub is a wheel or rim that is 20 inches in diameter. The term dub is a slang term for twenty, from "double dime" or two tens.[1] Some can be chrome or polished aluminum-alloy. Rims that are below 20 inches in diameter are referred to as sub-dubs.

DUB Magazine, a popular automotive enthusiast magazine, takes its name from the term and covers material chiefly pertaining to urban vehicles and the people that own them. The magazine often features celebrities and their vehicles.
