Not sure of the exact offset as no specs on C-line site, but the tread is dead even w/ the top of the fenderwell. The sidewall sticks out a little (maybe an inch) Too early to tell on the tires, but they seem to grip well. I was expecting a much harsher ride w/ lower sidewall section, but it doesn't seem much worse than the 265/70x16's.Also the Hankooks were way less expensive than any other brand I could find.
