[QUOTE="uncle aziz, post: 7410, member: 4424"] What is rim offset? A:The distance between the rim's center line and itsmounting surface. From the picture below it should beobvious why it's important to retain proper offset whenyou change rims: tire not centered properly affectingdrivability (negative roll radius changes), bearing load,rubbing on the struts or wheel arches, etc.Cross sectional view of a rim: Center Plane |\____+____/| |_____.____ | Street Side of Rim . // . // . || Mounting Face . || >--< Rim Offseteg:Size: 16x7J, 4 holes PCD: 114.3 Offset: 24 [/QUOTE]
