Message "it's easier to just post a quick one" for you, but multiply that every day and you end up with an archive of a million half-answers burying the handful of threads with in-depth information.

Here's how offset works. Zero offset is a centered wheel. Positive offset shifts the wheel inward that many mm. So let's say you have an 8" +0 wheel. You'd have 4" inside the hub surface, and 4" outside.

8" +25 would mount with 5" inboard and 3" outboard...you'd need an extra inch of clearance inside and have the outside 1" more sunk.

Going to a 9" with the same offset would add .5" to the inside and outside. Then going to +38 would shift the wheels 1/2" inward, so inside would need an extra inch (.5+.5), outside would be unchanged (.5-.5).
