Someone did this on another forum I was on.. I forget which one (ClubWRX maybe?) and it became a HUGE joke around the forum since offsets are such a silly thing to declare "secret". Because it only takes a few minutes to figure it out. Just take the rim width and measure back from the clearance needed on the inside. There's no profit in offsets, and anyone that matters has the ability to figure it out. So the only people being hurt is the community. Which makes this a massively bad PR manever.

If anyone is really interested in his offsets, grab this worksheet from Fikse wheels:

You know the diameter and width, a couple minutes with a tape measure, straight edge, and calculator and you'll know his offsets to within a mm or so.

BRB, gonna go delete all my offsets from my wheel threads.
