Off set and backspacing ?

[LA hunter]

Looking at buying American racing Mojave's. They are a 17x8 rim with a 4.5 backspace and 0.0 offset. Plann on putting 285/70's on.
But, if offset is mounting distance from center of rim, how can you have 0.0 offset and 4.5 backspace.

The real question is Will this combo rub (with or without ome medium lift)

my rims are 4.53 back space and -12 offset and they work fine.

I run the American Racing (Chrome Trench) with the stock backspacing in a 17X8 with no rub issues. Make sure that you order a hubcentric wheel for toyota or you may have issues with vibration. I had that problem on a tundra that i had.

Ops. Ordered wheels before I saw hubcentric note. I dont think the mojave is. how likely am I to have trouble. The dealership ordered them and said nothing.

if you have problems with them make them send them back. Buy the warenty on the wheels, in my experience it has been worth it.
