Wheel Offset and Backspacing
Wheel Offset and Backspacing
ok. im looking at the Procomp 7005 BLack wheels and the MHT Gauge D502 wheels.. both in 18x9
question is.. which one would stick out further and which will but tucked under more...( i want the tucked under look)
heres the specs:
Procomps : 5.0 BS, 0 offset
MHTs : 5.5 BS, 14mm offsets
thanks ... and please explain to me about the offset,, im kind of confused on where its measured exactly..
and i see alot of rims with negative offset.. the MHTs have a postive offset.

The MHT's will tuck in farther.
Offset is the distance from the mounting surface of the wheel (where it bolts to the hub) to the center of the wheel. Backspacing is much easier to understand. It's the distance from the mounting surface of the wheel to it's rear edge.

soo.. the 14mm offset mean it will be tucked under 14mm more and the 5.5 bs means its will be tucked under half inch more... so on a 6" lift... with the MHTs work ? i mean would they even look good... because i think those specs are close to stock.
