Offset??

[GABY-GT]

What does wheel offset mean, I don't know that much about wheels. I've been searching around for wheels and the ones that I want come with a 42 or a 35 offset. Which one would be better.??
What is the offset that most of you guys have on your rims???

it's the distance between the centerline of the wheel and the mounting surface.

Lower than OEM (which is 39mm) will push the centerline of your wheel out wider; higher will pull the centerline in narrower.

Nocones excpelantion was pretty good. Offset is the distance from the mounting pad to the center fo the wheel measured in mm ussually. Lower offset brings the wheels further out while higher pushes them in. Most celi owners run 35-45 offset. Hope this helps
