Funny, you guys make it seem like offsets are a tangible commodity! lol using terms like stealing and freebies...to pull off a certain look its much more than just the offset of the rim...its the tire, the camber, the suspension...all kinds of factors involved so to hide offset numbers because you dont want someone to have the same exact specs as whoever is pretty silly...like you said, especially if someone can just look at a wheel and assume the specs between 1-5mm...just my 2 cents homey!

hahah i think you are misinterpreting what was being said, i was referring that statement to the SOS (secret offset society) folks for hiding their spec. People from my350z and g35drivers know that me and my buddies dont hide our offsets or anything of that nature. You can easily go to rim tuck an get all the info you want from there. Im just trying to clear the air with you here cause from reading the quote above I think that you're saying that hiding spec is a commodity to me and the SOS community, thats why i said that why hide offset when someone can just figure it out anyways.
