ok... I give up... I've been searching all night. What does this mean?
The wheel being tucked in or flushed with the fenders depends on the wheel offset. The higher the offset, the more tucked in the wheels are going to look. The lower the offset, the more the wheel will flushed or outside of the wheel fender. The tires rubbing on the fender may also be caused by the wheel offset. Anyone please correct me if I'm wrong.

The offet is the distance from the center of the wheel. "0" offset is the center of the hoop. Any distance of the mounting surface towards the inside of the car is negative offset (in mm). The opposite is true for positive offset. The higher the offset, the further in the wheel will sit in the wheel well.

We fit 19x8.5 +23 and 19x9.5 +24 on the 2nd gen.
