Default offset...

sorry if this has been covered b4....

what offset am i looking for new wheels on my xb...i get all sorts of confused with the offset stuff. the higher the offset the more it sticks out or is the other way? and i was lookin at the rota actions on machiii.net and it shows on the site that they have them in the 4x100 pattern but the offsets they have them in is +35 and +48. would it be alright with either of those? and i do plan on lowering my xb as well. was lookin at a 2" drop. any info would be greatly appreciated. thanks guys

"+" offsets brings the center line of the wheel inboard. "-" offsets bring the center line of the wheel outboard.

Between +35 and +48, you'll only want the +35 in that wheel. +48 will rub, let alone prolly might not fit.

+48 will bring the wheel more into the fender, not out, than +35.
