Default Offset question

On an 8.5 inch wide concave wheel would 18 or 22mm have a bigger concave?
Thanks

I doubt it will have a different concave look. On the offset, most of the time, the inside surface of the hub and the depth of the lug bolt holes are machined to get the offset needed and not the face itself of the wheel. If they did this they would have to have different moulds for different offsets.
