Offset measures the mounting face to center of the wheel.

how does offset compare to backspace ? You can convert offset to backspace with a little math. Take the overall width of the wheel - typically the rated width (which is the bead area) plus an inch, so a 8" wide wheel is about 9" wide on the outside edge. Zero offset works out to the hub face exactly in the center, so the backspace of a 13x8" with 0 offset is 4.5".

Basically, the wheel bolts on in the middle of the rim, so the the backspace is about zero. I use 1/4 spacers to clear the stock calipers ( which I will put in the sale, at no extra charge ). Worked fine. Most people get longer stud bolts and use open lug nuts. You get more, ie. sufficient revolutions when tightening, but your stud bolts may be just fine.
These are some nice race wheels ! I hope someone can use them...
