Hi,
I have been researching new rims to fit my HZ wagon for a while now. I have found some 17" ROH RT's that have the correct PCD (5x120.65mm), however I am unsure of their offset and if they will be to big to fit. They are 17"x9" and 17"x8" and I was told that they have '4 INCH BACK SPACE'. Can someone tell me if that is the same as the offset?? I am guessing that the distance from the outer rim to the plate where the wheel nuts are secured is 4".
Anyways if anyone can help or has experience with RT's I would appreciate hearing your tale.
Cher.

http://www.rsracing.com/tech-wheel.html shows what you need to know. Also i would check with a tyre shop who should be able to tell you the backspacing and offset numbers you need.
