Sevas doesn't release offsets it's confidential.
That's hilarious! What"s the secret? Don't think I would ever buy a wheel from a company that thinks such a vital piece of info is "confidential". I have never heard such a thing

it's proprietary information bud. in the wheel business, it's all about how aggressive you can get with your offset.

DPE, iForged, Enkreuz, etc....all have this same policy of not disclosing offsets.
"Proprietary information", that is such a laughable thing.

Determining the actual offset of a wheel is easy. First you need to know the backspacing, the distance from the mounting surface to the edge of the inboard side of the wheel. So just measure it. With the wheel face down, rest a ruler horizontally along both edges (beads) of the wheel. Now take a tape measure and measure the distance from the ruler to the mounting pad of the wheel. That figure is your backspacing. Calculating a wheel's offset is just as easy. Offset is the wheel's overall width divided by 2 minus the backspacing. To get mm multiply by 25.4.

Example: 10" wide wheel with a 3.5" backspacing.
(10/2)-3.5=1.5" offset
1.5*25.4=38.1 mm offset

Beautiful wheels! From the pics, they actually look larger than 20's, more like 21's.
