Subject:What is the offset of M.B. 220 Diesel wheel?
From:David Marshall

While off roading on Sunday we stumbled upon a trashed and abandoned 69 or
70 220 Diesel Benz.  The car was a total wreck with the local red-neck
population riddling it with bullet holes - but the wheels and hub caps were
OK!  So out came the jack and tool kit and off came the wheels!  Now I have
five 14" wheels that fit PERFECTLY on my Double Cab!  They are 5 1/2J14 but
no mention of the off set.  Anyone have the answer?
