What is the backspacing on these wheels ... pics Does anyone know the backspacing of the 16x8 crosslace wheels from a 3rd gen? I know they are different front and rear. I found one website that said the offset was 0mm front and 16mm rear? Is this the same as backspacing? Any help would be appreciated. I have also included a pic of them on a 4th gen.

Thanks for the reply. Where can I measure this from? I am a wheel size newbie so please excuse my igorance. So if I laid a straightedge across the back face of the rim and measured to where the hub is on the rear wheels to the straightedge I would come up with 16mm. Is this correct? Or is this measured from the front face of the wheel. Thanks for the help.

Offset is the distance in mm from the hub mounting plate of the wheel to the centerline of the wheel.
So in essence to measure it, find the overall width of the wheel, divide by 2, to get the center line, then measure from the backside of the wheel to the hub plate. Take that dimension, and subtract the first number, and multiply by 25.4.
