Need a little backspacing/offset help
Just trying to see how the stance on my possible new wheels will look compared to my current ones. I think the new ones will stick out a little farthur, but i wanna be sure.
Current rims: 16x8, backspacing 3.625" Offset: -20 mm
New rims: 16x10, backspacing 4.5" Offset: -24 mm
Soooo, overall if my math is even close to correct.. the 16x10s will move in an inch due to backspacing, but their 2" wider, and offset is almost the same..so they will stick out an inch more than my current ones?
thanks guys

Inner rim lip moves inward 7/8"
Outer rim lip moves outward 1 1/8"
Center line of wheel/tire moves out about 1/8"
If you reuse the same tires, the tread will visually be in almost exactly the same place relative to the fender.

The nominal cross section of a 285mm tire is roughly 1 1/4" less than that of a 12.5. So add 5/8" to either side of the center line for the 12.5's. Adding 1/8" for the wheel offset shift would make it 3/4" on the outside. This is not exact because the tire x-section is rated by the manufacture for some particular wheel width, usually somewhere in the middle of the recommended range.
Anyway, I'd estimate that the tire will be out about 3/4 ~1" more at the x-section and the outer wheel lip will be out 1 1/8" more. Where the outer edge of the actual tread lies can vary widely due to differences in the tread shoulder design.
