There are two reasons the off road wheels stick out more... one is because the off road wheels are an inch wider (8" wide) instead of the "normal" 16 inchers which are only 7" wide. The other is because they have slightly less backspacing (from what I can remeber, the off-roads are like 5.25" while the others are more like 6")
