Wheel Offset Figures

[sexycar]

Hi..

I like to know about the measurements of offset in car wheels.
Lets say the offset is 35 et on 1 wheel & there's another wheel
with offset 36 et.. so the differences in 1 et is equal to how many
mm/cm/inches??
I wanted to know because if I were to use a 15mm spacer, how
much ET figures would 15mm be?

if not mistaken ofset figures are measure in mm. so a 15mm spacer will sort of reduce the offset by 15

if 1 et equals to 1mm ... hmmm... 1 mm is very little.... are u sure?

ya he's correct 1et = 1mm
