I don't know what "offset" is...I mean I'm sure I know the definition, but I don't get how it applies.

I don't know why RWD cars are capable of having such deep-ass rear wheels, and why I can't just put any 5x120 bolt-pattern wheel on the GTO despite its bolt-pattern being 5x120.

Anyone have any websites or anything...or they're just willing to explain?

Don't get onto me about this...everyone has to start somewhere, right?
ok.. offset is the distance between the center of the wheel and the hub.. that determines whether it's a neg. offset or pos.. more - an offset the farther the hub is to the inside of the wheel.. meanign the bigger lip you can fit on it..

RWD can have such wider tires because it's easier to put a wider tire in the back b/c in the front you have to worrt about it scrubbing b/c to have to turn those wheels.. the backs stay staionary (for the most part) and the GTO ? idk, prolly becase of the offset..

need any other info lmk..
