this is width from a vertical line from the centre of the wheel to outer edge i think, in mm and looking at wheel from front not side onOriginally posted by RodLeach*WARNING DUMB QUESTION* But, what does each digit correspond to in dimension terms?
eg 1=1mm etc?
but i could be wrong
reason for me asking is coz lc wheels have an offset of 10 and my std ones are offset 8Surf.gone but not forgotten

its this confusion is the reason for my asking as i want to put 17'' lc wheels on my truck, but would be happy if they stood out a bit, if its the reverse and they are more inset then its a no no as they will foul the inner wing.....Originally posted by RodLeachIsnt it the greater the um.. negative offset the further away it gets from the hub towards the outside of the rim? eg. away from the truck??!?!

The Landcruiser alloys, the ones that are the same as the 2nd gen Surf are -20 off-set and look good on the Surf 'cos they fill the arches better, i.e. more flush with the edge of the arch. So if they come off a Landcruiser, chances are that they will look good.

i have been looking at a set and stamped on them is offset 10 and my 3 gen wheels are marked offset 8 would i be right in thinking -20 is a measurement from the rear of the wheel and the readings i have are from the outer edge or am i just talking about something that i aint got a clue about, witch would be anything new.Originally posted by BUSHWHACKERThe Landcruiser alloys, the ones that are the same as the 2nd gen Surf are -20 off-set and look good on the Surf 'cos they fill the arches better, i.e. more flush with the edge of the arch.
