so i took my wheel off the other day. i never noticed it before, but on the inside of the rims were some markings about the weight and size. to my SHOCK, the rims said 17x7 1/2 !!! i always thought i had 17x7s. i tried to look around for an offset marking but couldnt find one. does anyone know if there is an easy way to tell what the offset is?

woot! i just called the company that i bought these rims from. seems that they are 17x7.5 45 offset! haha i had no idea, because i thought i ordered 17x7s over the phone. now i just need to find a spacer to make them look more flush.

Art, did you ride the short bus or something?
