R3 Wheel Offset?

Im looking into 17 inch wheels to run in stx but the rules state that I cannot run an offset more or less that .25 inch from stock does anybody know what the offset is on the stock 19 inch r3 wheels?

Ok. time for a stupid question. I thought I remembered reading somewhere about offset being .25 inches from stock for after market wheels. but I just found this in the solo rulebook:

14.4 WHEELS
Any wheels are allowed with widths up to the following:
STF, STC, STS, STR (AWD) – 7.5”
STX (AWD) – 8.0”
STX (2WD), STR (2WD) – 9.0”
STU – unlimited

Does that mean that I can run any offset I want?

As I understood it in ST* you can run any wheel within the above restrictions. I think the rule you were referencing earlier was to remain stock. For stock you can use any wheel with stock diameter and width, but you can adjust offset by the 0.25in.
