offset is what % of the wheel s width is inside of the hub of your car +55 offset means 55% of the wheels width will be to the inside of the wheel think of it this way the higher the offset the more the wheel will tuck under the car the lesser the offset the more it will stick out i.e rubbing problems you'll need a +45 or better to have any chance at a no rub problem

found this in a post any truth to this?


for a type-s, the offset aim is about 50mm, and for a CL-P, the offset aim is about 40.
