What is wheel offset?

w w w . v a n c o u v e r c i v i c s . c o m
Wheel offest is measurement of how far or close your wheels are to the car. It's measured by where the wheel mounts to the hub, and where the outer and inner edges are in relationship to that mounting location. For example, if your wheel was perfectly centered, and the inner edge of the rim was 3" from the mounting face of the wheel and the outer edge was 3" away, the wheel would be considered a "zero" offset. This is usually indicated by 0+/-. Most Honda wheels are about +40 to +45 offset.
