Offset is measured from the centerline of the wheel, so quoting offsets without telling anyone the width of the wheel is useless.
For example, IF (this is only an example) a +35mm offset 8 inch wide wheel tucks, a +35mm offset 9 inch wide wheel would NOT. Same offset, different width, different fit.
SO
when you ask about offset, include the width. If you are looking at +20mm offset, how wide is the wheel? If you think you need +35mm offset, how wide was that wheel?
And because I dont believe in pointing out the problem without also suggesting a solution (something I wish more people believed), if someone posts the offset and width they KNOW without a doubt fits a 92 dakota, I will transpose that number to any width you are curious about.
