Formula to find offset of rims.
Formula to find offset of rims.
Can anyone tell me the formula to determine the offset of rims or can tell me the offset of my rims? I have rims that I am trying to get rid of but I lack specifics to sell them. The rims are staggered, the rears are 18x10 on a 235/35/18 with about approximately 2 inch lip and run flush to the body of the car. The fronts are 18x8.5 with approximately an inch lip which also runs flush. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

On the inside of the rim should be a stamp that say ET## (2 numbers). Every rim should have that stamp. That's your offset.
Here's an example.

2) Measure wheel backspace, or distance between wheel mounting surface and inboard flange of wheel.
3) Subtract centerline from backspace. This is your offset.
