First off, I do not have the decoder ring. But the following should help a
little.
Offset, It depends...
How wide is your car? We have a maximum width that you have to stay under,
so the offset will be different for each car. And the amount of offset
will also be determined by how much room you have inside of the wheel hub
(room to move inward). What size wheels do you have now?

OK, I have built a few cars, put together an outdoor storage shed, even
figured out the 2-stroke concept. Why can't I decipher wheel offsets? I
know what offset means. But when looking at wheels, it seems like I need a
super secret decoder ring. I want a 10X7 wheel. I have seen offsets listed
as 3+4 negative. Does this mean the backspace is 3 or 4 inches? I have
also seen offset listed as 2B/4N. What the hell is that? All I want is
four 7" wide wheels for my poor little Zink so I can put rains on them.
I'll even take steel wheels for this purpose.
So, who has a decoder ring they want to sell?
