Re: question about van rallies
"Backspace" is the distance from the edge of the rim to the flat area where the wheel mounts to the rotor.....from the back side
"Off-set" is how far that same flange is away from the exact center of the wheel.
So a 6" wheel and an 8" wheel with the same backspace would have different off-set.
Her is a quick little diagram to show it better
