It can be hard to identify a rim profile of shiny chrome. I quickly put some masking tape to highlight the profile and marked the edge with a sharpie to identify the edges. I took a picture from two slightly different angles.  I hope that you can see the difference in the offset of this wheel compare to the one you first pictured. To me there is a big visible difference between the Hertz wheel and the Mopar wheel in your pictures. Some people for whatever reasons have difficulty seeing small differences in this special wheel. If you can't see the difference then I can't help further. I hope this helps.

Thanks!
So it is the depth of the center hub so to speak into the rim itself. Thank you for explaining 😎

I was fixated on the deep dish outer part of the wheel rather than the part closest to the Hub🤦�♂️

The center and its relation inside the rim is the offset (wheel offset) that I kept referring to in my posts. I am glad you now understand what I am talking about . You should understand better now also the post I made talking about the problem of trying to make the Mopar wheel you picture into a Shelby Hertz wheel by moving the center inward to duplicate the Shelby Hertz wheel offset.

Forum Guide

I took the liberty of resurrecting this deleted thread and sanitizing it... by leaving the very valuable technical information that was contained in the dialog and removing all of the bullsh!t and snotty side comments that were totally uncalled for and ruined a discussion

I really don't want to see that crap anymore.

If you've got a problem send a message to the admin ..but keep your unnecessary (and unwanted) comments to yourself and off of a technical discussion

Thanks
