Here it is... As mentioned on the pic, the black dots are the lugnuts, and each of the squares represents a type of wheel. The line in the middle is where the wheel meets the surface of the brake hubs. =) Hope it makes more sense with this!


Awesome! makes perfect sence and now I totaly get it! Thanks I appreciate it! So with the Pro5 if the offset number is like lower than +42 then the outside of the wheels hits the fender and we have to roll the fenders right? Is there a number thats too high that the inside of the wheel will hit something?
 
The point at which the wheel would rub on the outside of the wheel well, if you went to high with offset, I would have to say would be around +60 to +70, as this would move the wheel outward almost an inch, which is about how much clearance there is. Don't quote me on that, though. =) The big thing is, the further you drift from the optimal offset, the more you affect camber. Don'y want your wheels looking like the rear axle is bent right in the middle, after all, do ya? ;)
