First person who explained offset in simple terms thanks for that great demo.

Best explained definition of all time. No jargon or technical ambiguity, just plain ol' truth..... old school, bruh !

Tks!, Ronny. The CLEAREST & SIMPLEST explanation of offset I have ever seen on KZfaq.

Ron, thank you so much. I never knew this and it is never talked about when setting up off-road vehicles. Gezz, I learn something new every time I watch one of your videos. I'm very glad to be a subscriber. Be well & Happy trails.

Thanks for appearing in my feed. I feel like you keep answering all the questions I otherwise would've never thought to ask. Also great to see your old videos too and appreciate how far you've come; production, content, quality etc.

All the Aussie off-road channels I come across have clear and informative info about what changes to your vehicle actually do! Refreshing and great for someone new to the hobby.

Great explanation. This is why I love KZfaq. I learn stuff I would never learn without it. Thank you.

You've explained it better and much simpler than anyone i've heard before, subscribed.

Thanks Ronny, what a timely video. I'm currently shopping for steel rims, and as I have jmacx's axle, I thought I didn't need an offset. Could not find one a zero offset and some were ridiculously out. ROH were the smallest at 10mm. Now I know why. Two inch wider rim will bring it in 1 inch and rub on something. Cool, now I'm happy to buy them. Thank you.

Hi Ronny...Now how amazing and of a true coincidence this is...I was literally watching several alder of your "MODIFIED" videos, in which (very) regularly wheels, and their offset is talked about, but, not always very clear to me...And now there you are with a very comprehensive video about wheels' OFFSET !! Thanks, very clear !!!

Thank you for the Info Ronny, I'll make sure I keep this in mind before changing the size of my rims👍

Probably one of the better videos I’ve seen explaining and going more into detail about different offsets. Thank you sir 👍

Wow... best explanation I’ve seen/heard. Again Ronny, absolute gem of a video... 👍👍👏👏

Great video, i've always just told people that negative hits the body, positive hits the suspension, the least technical way i could think to explain it.

Thank you, best explanation I’ve heard.

I had no idea about rim offset and have been wanting to know for ages. This video couldn't have given me a more clearer explanation. Definitely worth the 15 minute watch

Thank you so much…this video has helped me a great deal…I’m in the market for new rims and tires for my Jeep here in Northern Alberta and now I am confident that I’ll pick the right ones…awesome tip about protecting the rubber boots and break lines 👍🏼…lots of sticks and snags where I wheel :)

This is the best video I have watched on this topic. Straight to the point and very well explained. Thank you!!!

Out of all the videos on KZfaq yours Roni was the best explanation,thanks mate

Just purchased a 2018 Subaru Crosstrek and looking to change my rims, wheels and perhaps add a lift. Your video is so informative and it helped me understand the meaning of offset. GREAT CONTENT. THANK YOU.

Best explanation so far I've been able to find, thanks!

This was by far the best explanation of this..just bought new rims and tires for my 2022 f250 pro comp rim 6 offset 4.75 back spacing with a 295/70/17 BFG AT KO. Thanks for help..I subscribed!

Have to Ronny you have some of the most informative and easiest to follow videos on the tube, cheers!

Love your tutorials. Very easy to understand. Keep up the good work.

Ronny, I really appreciate all your videos! Thanks keep them coming!

Best explanation/example so far on the net. Thank you

Thanks for explaining the measuring of the offset. I always wondered how they came up with the number. Now I know. Thanks, George.

I went with a -19 offset on my new wheels gave me exactly what I was looking for. Slightly wider stance increased my stability a food amount and my traction when driving through soft surfaces.

Thanks Ronny. After watching this video, I totally understand the off set

I just found your channel and I am learning sooo much! Thanks man!

Loving the informational videos coming back, keep it up

Best offset video ever...Thank's for the great and easy to understand explanation...legend

This is the best video and examples about this. Thank you for making this video.

Been wondering what all meant for years and now I know.....thanks 👍👍

Beautifully and SIMPLY explained . Thank You .

Your videos are awesome dude, lots of solid information. appreciate it

I think another important distinction to make is that you can go less positive or more positive if you currently have a positive offset wheel. Likewise, you can go more or less negative offset if you currently have a negative offset wheel. i.e. my truck came with +45 offset wheels. I was running 35x12.5 tires with no rub. I wanted to up the tire to 37x13.5. I also wanted to increase the rim width from 8" to 9" to better suit the wider tires which also has to be considered in the calculation. I went with a lesser positive offset wheel of +20mm. In my case this was the best balance between rubbing on the upper control link inboard and rubbing on the rear of the fender well outboard. In the end with a little rear fender well trimming I have no rub on the fender at full lock, but I did gain a little rub on the upper link at full lock. This is the compromise I had to except to maximize my tire / wheel combo. If I went to 0mm or negative offset, I could easily clear the upper link, but I would have to do major surgery to the rear of the fender well.

15 minutes schooling me of the good stuff. thank you.

I was thinking about getting new wheels to compliment my new, larger tires to give me a little poke on my new truck. Now, I think I will stick with my stock wheels. Thanks for the education!

Great info Ronny! Big 👍🏾 from Papua New Guinea 🇵🇬

Thanks Ronny. Great video Also changing the offset either way has a negative impact on steering geometry. Maybe worth the compromise for better stability, but worth thinking about. As well as if you change it and something breaks or bends (think wheel coming off) the vehicle manufacturer will wash their hands of it and you’ll be on your own. They will just say we didn’t test or design the vehicle with those wheels. Can get very bad very quickly if there’s an accident with injury or death. Think ISUZU NPS300 4x4 with wide singles instead of the standard dual rear wheels.

Thank you very much Ronny. Now I understand at last negative and positive index of rims. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👍🏻😷😄

Been watching heaps of your vids, getting my troopy set up from scratch and the $$$ are mounting up, getting the track alignment and GVM upgrade from JMACX and then a roof conversion with alu-cab.... and the $$$ keep piling up since i dont have batteries, water tanks and all that in it yet, as I want it as a home for the next 12mnths or more. Having watched one of your other vids with the Hungarian couple, I can still survive without all the other bells and whistles for now.

Greats explanation, always wondered what people meant by off set rims.

Awesome vid. Easily explained and to the point. Thank you😃

Great job explanaining offset! Thanks for sharing!

Thank you so much I’ve been trying to understand wheel offset for years

Excellent video, best explanation of rim offset I’ve seen.

People should also be aware about how offsets can effect your scrub radius, and that your offset should match your Tyre height and king ping inclination so you suspension geometry stays in spec and you don’t ruin its handling

Great vid Ronny, that's something I've always wondered. I'd be really interested to see a video about after market lockers. I.e. different brands and different styles like elockers or airlockers or the "lokka" Cheers!

thanks - perfect explanation. Made it easy to follow and understand.....!!!

Great vid. Informative, clear and to the point.

Negative offset brings your wheel outward toward the edge, positive offset brings your wheel inward. No off set is centered, Thank you! There was much more that I learned but that was the basic info on which I can build on.

Very well done. Perfect explanation.

Great Explanation, thanks so much!

Thanks for explaining this! Legend!

Very nicely explained. Easy to understand in one viewing only.

Great vid as always Ronny 🙂👍🏽

Thanks. Plain and simply explained.

Excellent video Ronny ... thank you!

Thanks Ronny, I think legality is an important consideration. I’m led to believe the maximum negative offset legal in Australia is -25 mm from standard fitment. (For benefit of viewers Eg current model Hilux is +30 therefore max allowed is +5 before one becomes illegal) I see vehicles everyday on the road with aftermarket wheels which are running around with illegal offset if the above is true. If you have knowledge in this area It would be great if you could share that as well, cheers 👍

I m new to your channel, subscribed today watched plenty of your videos and i gotta say you have quality!! Nice explanations, simple to understand. Greetings from Greece, wish off roading was as popoular as it is there!!

Awesome! I learnt something new today.. Thanks Ronny

Best video intros on KZfaq! Always got me guessing where he might appear from😁

Outstanding video - you are a great teacher! A rim choice vid will be great. Such as when would you choose a 15 inch rim over a 17, 18 or 20?

Ronny I understood it all. Thanks fella!

Thanks Ronny, understood wheel offset for the first time 🙌

thankyou ronny, it was a very useful and informative video.

The thumbnail taught me more than all of the vids I’ve watched

Thanks for taking the time to 'show' the difference.

Great video bro straight to the point.

Great vid, the stance is really different, and less of a security hazard for cars, especially that, u'll want to do a little less in a car than u could do in a proper off road vehicle (a car that's 1-worth it, 2-can take it). I myself have had rims 25mm wider than stock with 20mm negative offset mounted on my Mustang, not to mention smaller, spacers are a no go for me, thick ones will mess with u'r vehicle and have a huge chance to throw the wheel off balance. thin ones reduce u'r lug nut threads by the amount of it's width, not a stupid thing to make them illegal

Thanks so much. Great explanation of wheel offset. 👍🏻

Great informative vid as always Ronny o7

You’re a good teacher.

Contrary. I’ve been doing tires for years, I know what Rim Offset is. I just love watching you guys.

Great video mate clear and concise

Can you do a video comparing narrow (255mm or less) and wide tyres (265mm and higher) please? Pros and cons - off road performance, tyre weight (unsprung mass), braking distance, acceleration, stability/handling, fuel consumption etc.

one of the best explanation

hi, from the usa, y love your video, very informative, thanks for sharing.

cheers for helping mate. I need neg as I always scrub when flexing in my lux on 33s

Best explanation I've ever seen on this but please make a video on the effect to steering feel/ physics please

Great video, thank you! Just subscribed.

Great explanation! Thank you buddy!

VERY USEFUL VIDEO. THANKS!

Best 4x4 channel on KZfaq

I give this video 10/10 articulations!

Scrub radius is a problem to consider also. Negative offset will increase this and make turning much harder. It also is more strain on all the turning gear.

Clear & Informative - Thanks !!!

Well explained, I’d recommend explaining back spacing as well.

Great instructional video

you have taught me well............thank you

Great Tips, Good Stuff 👍 Thanks!

Cheers m8 helping a brother out alll the way in the caribbean!!!! Hectic

probably the best video on KZfaq explaining offset! Thank you for saving me time and money

Ronny you sir are a HERO. I salute you mate, I just wish to migrate to Australia to go wheeling with you. It's like a kid meeting batman/superman :D

Thank you for the guidelines this is awesome now i have a idea 💡👍

Best explanation ever. Subbed

Good on you, explained very well. thanks

thanks dude didnt even think about spacers saved me a true penny
