Default offset ?

Ok here I go what would be the diff. in a offset on a 20x10,11 or a 21x11 rim and a 22x10.
I want to go 21s but they are more expensive than 22s.
And i know you want to bash me on the size but im a dub guy and when im done ill be in the dub section,that being said im asking this cause no one ever goes in the dub section lol.
Here is the look i want and yes there 22s

i know "to each it's own" but i think 20x10's and 20x 8.5 would be a good fit. i thought dubs was conciders 20''s i mean if things change things change. just keep me informed

not sure what you're asking? whats the difference in offset on different diameter rims? the size of the rim doesnt determine the offset, its up to you. how low you are, what size tyres you run, how much camber, if you have any guard mods etc.

Possibly this will help in understanding offset and wheel width...

.25mm = 1"

If you have a 22x10 with 40mm offset and compare it to a 22x11 with the same 40mm offset the 22x11 wheel itself is 1" wider, but that doesn't mean it sticks out 1" more it means that it sticks out .5" more which equals 12.5mm. This means the 22x11 with 40mm offset would be equal to a 22x10 with a 27.5mm offset in regards to how far the wheel is going to stick out.

Just promise me your not gonna.... Get dat new DONK style dawg, and cop dem duece four's...



lol, just messing with ya bigjez :P

To be honest bro, I'd just do a staggered 20x8.5/20x10 with an offset in the low 20's for an aggressive flush look and then dump the ride using coilovers to fully tuck tire. That would look way better then some 22's. Are there alot of donks where you live?
