It's too late now, since you've already bought it, huh?

Those are niiiice rims. Heavy, but nice. I am a sucker for a good set of 5-spokes.

Sometimes the offset is stamped or cast on the back of the wheel. Try looking there.

Otherwise, I would contact MAS and be sure to specify the model, size, and bolt pattern (5x114.3) so that they can tell you what the offset is or what offsets are/were available for that combination of dimensions.

Oh yes, offset is really important - especially if you're trying to cram the biggest tires you can under there. Good luck.

ok thanks for the help guys! Im glad to hear some one thinks they are nice! Even if they are heavy, which they are....although they came with tires on them so I cant tell exactly how heavy just the wheels are....I would say about 40 LBS total at least.
