The offset of a wheel is the distance from its hub mounting surface to the centerline of the wheel.



As pgFA said the lower the offset the further the wheel will stick out.

If your considering 17 x 8 +33 I would be interested to hear what your dropped on if your lowered and what size tires you plan on running.
