I'm having bicycle mechanic dyslexia here. On a bike, you "dish" the rear wheel by adjusting the spokes so the rim is "offset" from the center of the hub to permit the rim to be centered (for braking) and the hub flanges to be offset to permit your rear gears to fit.
What direction is "offset" on the automotive rims about which you're writing? In? Out? And from what is "offset" measured? Centerline? Hub?
I have the same problem with rubbing with 16" Aero rims on a 1988 convertible.
