The offset of a wheel is what locates the tire and wheel assembly in relation to the suspension. More specifically, it is the measured distance between the hub mounting surface and the center line of the rim. Below is an explanation of the various types of offsets which are pictured in the above graphic.

Positive Offset
A positive offset occurs when the hub mounting surface is on the street side (the side you see) of the center line of the rim. Most factory rims will have this type of offset.

Zero Offset
When the hub mounting surface is centered within the rim, it is known as a zero offset.

Negative Offset
If the hub mounting surface is on the brake side of the center line of the rim, it is considered a negative offset or "deep dish".

^^^ exactly right. if the motegi's are the same width as your current wheels, the 5mm shouldnt be a problem. if the motegi is wider, the distance between the center of the wheel and the suspension side will be greater, and thats when you will have problems. that said, if you like the wheels and must have them, you can always get spacers.
