I can't see this having any effect on contact patch or offset? It has an effect on the position of the contact patch relative to the centreline of the strut (fore and aft), as often the strut is inclined reaward, so in a very small way, it is like a castor wheel (hence the self centering effect when you let go of the wheel) with the contact patch behind the strut centreline. The offset can affect the location of the contact patch relative to the strut in a left/right direction, which has a greater affect on scrub radius and steering/cornering capability. I'll try and dig up some references [Report message to a moderator]
