It's not measured in degrees, its measured in mm's. And I really don't think anyone knows for sure. The AE website shows standard 0 offset rims but it did for the 10.2 as well and that ran +3 offset to get to the max ROAR width. There is definitely a difference in handling between the two. If you have been racing for a while you will feel it for sure.

Those are 0 offset and match what AE has on their site currently.

honestly though, i kinda liked them. I know all you stock racers would take them off due to dragging, but with a 6.5 turn D4, I have all the power in the world (...I run on a big indoor clay track)

I switched over because I actually like the b5m and as a dealer its half the money (I love my T5M too) but I still have 1 of each of the Kyosho cars and if the prices get close I would consider switching back. Its a tough call. The new AE cars are really good.

Agreed... AE has stepped up their game. The 5 Series cars are of great quality, definitely notches above the previous generation.
