Re: Tire size
ha ha I'm on night shift i went into supercheap to look at their primer and to see what I'll need and opened my mouth and made my self look like a real tard
what i was asking is positive offset = a wider track ie will these rims stick out more from the guards giving more track or have been sniffing too much paint last night

Re: Tire size
Higher the offset number the more they will be pushed towards the center of the car.
Lower number eg -12 will stick wells outside the guards
Higher Number eg +38 will push the wheels into your struts.

Like unlimitedpower said, offset does the opposite of what you said up there ^
If two sets of wheels are the same width but different offsets, the lower offset wheels will have more dish and a will give a wider track than the higher offset wheels.
