Another consideration for anyone thinking of installing wheels with considerably less positive offset is the leverage effect when hitting a bump. Wheels that sit farther away from the point where control arms are attached to the chassis means any upward motion on the wheel will exert a greater force on springs and shocks thus reducing the dampening effect of the suspension. Remember factory engineers design suspension geometry, wheels, tires shocks and springs to work together, so altering scrub radius by changing wheel offset has many consequences, like altered steering feel, reduced bearing life and changes to toe in and toe out under braking and acceleration.
