Default wheel offset ??

hey i've been readimg and searching and waring my brain out trying to find out what this means. Wheels i'm looking into have this instead of a numeric offset: HPO/MED anyw=body knows what that means?

Read the "STICKY" first, then if that doesn't answer your question post again.

HPO=high positive offset
MED= medium offset
IMO, I would still request the offset information ,if they can't give it to you/ don't know it, I would shop somewhere else. The offset should be in the +40 to +56 range to fit your car.

well this sucks. i don't really want wheel spacers, but the seller told me the offset is 20 & 35. that is wierd. the wheels are 19 x 8.5 with 35mm offset? the site also said there was 100% fitment to all vehicles...

so i've seen a couple of sites that list the lug pattern as 5x 120, and some that actually says 5x 120.65. is 5x120 so far off that it wont fit? or is it just easier to list? basically, will it fit?
