Offset question !

Ok well I bought XXR 522 rims last night and I got the 48offset ones, my car is lowered on tein springs if that matters.
Just want to know what's the difference between 35 offset and 48 offset? Isn't stock 50 offset? I have searched alot but idk lol.
Will 48 offset require fender roll? I'm just confused to be honest..

Seriously do you think a 2mm difference will require a fender roll? You have not searched a lot.

Look at 2mm on a ruler and then tell me if you think it will make a difference. You are forgetting about width. Look at the stickies in this subforum. Come on man, get your head out of your ***.

I'm just trying to get a straight answer. That's all I'm asking for, so 48 off set is just 2mm out more than stock so stock rims are 50mm the lower the number the more it sticks out correct ?

You will be fine

That is very close to stock, The outside of the rim is about 1/4 inch out from where the stock rim sits
