What the hell is that supposed to mean? I answered his question
no you didnt. I would hope that most people know what FWD and RWD stand for, he was asking about rims. I just thought it was funny that you think he didnt understand what you explained very well.

It's just a generic way of describing the wheel offset for lazy manufacturers and retailers who don't want to bother putting anyone in charge of maintaining the website or brochure data with specific offsets. FWD wheels can generally be thought of as higher than +25 offset, and RWD as everything lower than that. I would definitely find out the actual offset before committing to anything.

This should all go away soon with cars like the 05 Mustang having a huge +45-50mm offset.. which has pretty much been a Subaru only offset for years.
