Default Offset wheels...I need some help

I want these wheels http://oewheelsllc.com/Wheels_3/Whee...1-Wheel-chrome. Same as I have right now. I want two new 275 REAR wheels, but I want them to be flush with my fender for a better stance/appearence instead of getting wheel spacers. How do I determine what the wheel offset should be? Do they have to be custom ordered through a paticular website? Most any wheels (just like these) are "as is" ready to buy. thanks

I believe you can still get them with a +38 offset, which is what you will want. I'm still not sure who has them with a +38 though.
You can find 17 x 9.5 +38 offset wheels on Ebay.

Let me know how those work out if you will, as I am looking at the same ones from the same company only in a 17 X 11.

I have one 38mm front wheel and one 56mm offset (like the ones in the link). I have no clue as to how or why the PO did that but I'll swap you that one for a 56mm if you want...
