offset is bascially the relationship to were the mounting surface of the wheel is to the center of the widthe of the wheel.

for example a 3x5 off set means that one side of the wheel center is 3" from the outside wheel edge and the other side is 5" from the center. this of course is on a 8" wide wheel. each wheel size is differant.

one thing you want to avoid is a zero offset wheel. these wheels were designed for the early non suspended trikes and are oem replacements.

the more offset you have the wider the stance and more stability you get.
