CLG Forums Junkie I supported Toymods Location: Perth, Western Australia Registered: December 2002	Re: Sprinter with 7" rims and a +25mm offset Tue, 04 November 2003 06:29 OK, clarification on offset. My understanding is positive offset occurs when the wheel mounting face is short of the median point of the wheel, ie the wheel has a greater percentage of the wheel in front of the mounting face than behind, and vice versa for negative offset. My reason for taking this approach is, we all know FWD cars run large negative offsets by design (usually around -40mm) and their mounting faces are pushed out to the outside edge of the wheel. By error of assumption, everyone assumes a RWD runs positive offset as that is what everyone says, but the fact is, most RWD still run negative offset, just less so than FWD cars. To see true positive offset on factory wheels, look for something like a Porsche rim, these run positive offset from the factory, and have deep dishes in the rim due to this factor.
