Appropriate Wheel Offset for 18" Wheels?

Something is wrong with your measurement, or maybe with that drum to drum measurement.

I was thinking about it, so I looked at the kit. Those rotors sit on the axle flanges, and they're the mounting point for the wheels. There's no way they add more than a 1/4" to the track. The axles stay in the same place, so the only difference is the thickness of the rotor compared to the thickness of the drum at the axle flange.

The bbp axle flanges are about 3/16" to 1/4" thicker than the sbp flange. So there's a potential 1/2" total. I'll measure again to make sure I'm not crazy because this is boggling my mind too.
