Rotordad is incorrect. If everyone had been talking about negative offset rather than positive he would have been correct. I'm giving him the benefit of doubt and assuming his logic was simply confused, and he's not a total tard. If spacers were sold as negative sizes maybe it wouldn't be so confusing.

IE: -10 offset used with a 10mm spacer would put you at a -20mm offset (neg 20mm offset that is). 10+10=20

Ted seems to be tired of ignorance, and is getting a bit grumpy. I believe he should go surfing and get recentered.

Grumpy or not, I think Ted's initial post to this thread (#3) with the attached wheel offset illustration, was the most useful nugget of information in this entire thread. A picture is often worth 1000's of words, and in this case, the picture clearly explains the concept of wheel offset so well that any dunderhead can understand it. I hope the mods don't decide to edit that one out of this thread.
