Wheel Offset

I was wondering if anyone could help me figure out what my wheel offset is... I have 18x7.5" Tenzo R RS5's. I want to know because I am shopping some different wheels, and was curious what my current offset is.

Its not really an easy thing to measure.

If you have a ruler with a sliding right angle on it (called a builder's square, I think), then measure from the mounting surface to the back lip of the wheel. Subtract half of the wheel's width from whatever you get. Whatever is left over is the offset, convert it to mm.

Or find it online somewhere.

Sure it is! Take a wheel off and clean the brake dust of the spokes. All rims have the size, offset, and weight limit stamped in them (usally the spokes). That or if your lucky you could find it online.
