i dont think thats how it works tho

this is what i calculated adding to the back of the rim

original
19x8.5 +35mm
add 1.5" makes it a +54mm
add 2" makes it a +60mm

can anyone confirm my calc or DietCoke's?

TIA

I could be wrong, but you won't change the offset of your wheels by widening it from the backside. Now your offset WILL change if you add a spacer to your hub.
