I can't see how converting to metric simplifies this process in the US. Best of luck with your recovery Jeff.

[@supremecut7168]

Because fractions are stupid..

Thanks for the vid. What exactly is, "Inset?" The Subi Service manual for 2022 WRX says the wheel "Inset" is 55mm.

[@davidornelas7864]

Best explanation

[@melissavansel4396]

Get well soon

[@crashedking1931]

so if I order a new set of wheels you either work with offset or backspace but not both right. if a rim manufacture asks you for back space then you give them a backspace number. If they ask you for offset you give them the desired offset. I guess im asking will a wheel manufacture ask you for both backspacing or offset because its kind of the same thing.

EXCELLENT . . . . Stay Frosty All

[@samermohamed5293]

Thank you bud I wish you are doing well

[@pritambissonauth2181]

Thanks for explaining

[@LN7747]

My stock wheels are ET39.
I'm looking at different alloys which match the rim size and PCD, but have an offset of ET45.
Would this be ok and safe to fit?

[@HighPSItv]

I dont know what et39 is

[@jhustle74]

This was helpful

[@timothy7754]

Thank you for the vidoe.

[@rogerflick825]

So, sorry I'm old what's the point. I have 12 inch rims with 7 inches of back spacing that leaves 5 inches to outside. Isn't all the same or my dumbass missing the point? I'm glad your getting better!

[@HighPSItv]

Most wheel manufacturers today use offset instead of backspacing in their catalogs

[@rogerflick825]

@@HighPSItv . Got you I'm still using weld wheels and centerline's and stuff like that. Good info trying to teach an old dog new tricks. Lol. I appreciate it.

[@dwaynehanson1509]

Does this affect the performance or handling of the tire

[@HighPSItv]

It can. By putting more load on it, or less load. Like a lever effect.

[@RYTHMICRIOT]

Some of us "truck guys" have a simpler way to check wheel offset. We use $100 bills layed long ways across the lip. To some, your lip must be at least one bill across the lip or you're not legit.

[@Dognme]

Perfect

[@josephboley]

✌👍👌

[@stefandwoodham]

Seriously!! RUclips has tons of videos explaining this ...just go rest
