It should also fit a variety of BMW, VW, and Audis that don't have larger performance brakes.

If you can see the stamping on one of the spokes for the offset, that might also help potential buyers determine proper fitment. I know you listed the measured backspacing, but to someone like me, I'd rather know the factory stamped offset.

Isn't the measured backspacing better to go off of than the wheel offset?

Either way works, it's just a different way of measuring it. Basically metric vs standard.

I'm just more used to using the offset and size on a stock wheel and comparing it to the aftermarket specs on a wheel calculator like this: https://tiresize.com/wheel-offset-calculator/

That same calculator allows me to put in the backspacing at 5.98" on an 8" wheel and calculates the offset as 38mm.

That makes a whole lot of sense, I'll just dig up the link that I found with all the specs and posted in the main listing.

But when I buy wheels for a car offset means almost nothing to me, I typically just go off of backspace measurements in inches.

But hey, you learn something everyday, right lol
