I thought the lower the number the more sucked in?
for example New Edge have like 22mm offsets and the stick out a lot on s197s, while ours are sucked in.

It depends on the design of the wheel too. If it's not really a deep concave wheel, a lower number will stick out, which I think is the case with new edge wheels.

Man, I thought I finally had this whole offset thing down, but now you have me wondering again. lol

You pretty much just said the same thing.


But, I'm thinking a higher number is sucked in more, so a 30 offset will stick out further than a 40. That's my understanding. I just don't know what is too much or too little. I also don't know how backspacing affects it.
