What is the offset on a stock gbody wheel?

['84 El Camino SS]

I looked in the forums and it seems everyone dances around the question. Does anyone know? The reason i ask is because im looking at a set of Enkei #92 wheels of a T/A and would like toknow if i need 4 rear wheels or 4 front wheels. Thanks for your help.

i believe its a +5 the g bodys well most old cars used a 0-15 offset and most 15x8 have a +5 +8 offset

do you think a 15x8 with 4 inch back spacing and -19mm offset would work?

I have inquired about this whole backspace and offset because I was getting a little confused ... Bottom line is If you know the backspace then thats it the offset doesnt change the the demention from the wheel lip to mounting flange. A 8" wheel with a 4" backspace is just that 4" from flange to inner wheel lip. the 19mm offset is in proportion mounting flange to centerline of wheel. Anyway yes those wheels with a 4" backspace is should fit 😀

that's the back space measured from the hub to the inside lip of the rim.....the offset is the measurement from the center of the wheel to the hub....if it's an 8" rim with a 4" backspace the offset would be 0...it it's a 9" rim with a 4" backspace the offset would be +1/2"...the stock wheel I believe had a 3.75" backspacing
