Weedahoe, stock wheels have a 19mm offset for the 20x9's. That's a 5.75" backspacing. Rim sits inward and over the top of the suspension frame. A 4.75" or -12mm offset would push the wheels outwards away from the suspension components. Smaller the backspacing, the more Rican your ride will look....lol

If you take a wheel off and lay it on it's face so your looking at the inside of the wheel...Take a measurement from where the rotor touches the back of the wheel and to the outer edge, so basically your ruler would be sticking straight up in the sky. It's easier with a tire off because you can place a flat board across and read the measurement. I eyeball looking from the side.
