No matter how many times I try to get this, I never can seem to get my mind around it.
Are backspacing and offset dependent on each other, or independent?
For instance .. if you have two 15x8 rims with a 5 inch B.S. will the offset on both of the be the same, or is it possible to have a two 15x8 inch rims, each with a 5 inch B.S. but with DIFFERENT offsets?
The reason I'm asking is b/c I'm looking at some custom rims, but that only list offsets (not B.S.) .. so if offsets and backspacing are dependent on each other, then I can easily figure out which will fit and which won't. If they're independent, then I don't know how to gague if the rim will fit w/o physically having the rim to measure.
