    Sorry mate, your question does not make sense. The offset refers to the distance the mounting plate of the rim is away from the centre of the rim, IE a -6mm offset will be 6mm closer to the the car from the centre of the rim. On a GQ you will need some negative offset rims to fit a 12.5 inch wide tyre so that it misses the guard and inside of the wheel arch on up travel.

    If that helps awesome, if not let me know and I can answer some questions.

    Think they're on about width........ To fit 12.5" tyres you'll need at least 8" rims, some say 8.5".

    Thats right healy, the 12.5 fit quite well on an 8 inch rim I reckon.
