I don't exactly know how to understand offset. I don't know bigger or smaller the number does what? I see everyone goes with a 39 offset. The wheels on my car are 42 offset. I think this is why i rub so much..

basically, offset is how far off the middle line of the rim, the back face sits.

so, positive offset, sits forward or outboard of the middle line, and negative offset is pushed inward of the middle line. and 0 offset is directly in the middle.
