Question 2011 E350 wheel offset?

Can someone please tell me what the wheel offset on my van is? I would like to change the wheels and tires and i can't figure out what offset to buy. I plan to go with 17x8.5. I also plan to go with steel wheel spacers and according to my measurements the left wheel is in further than the right by approximately 5/8". Would you agree or am I doing something wrong?

Backspace and offset

Don't worry about offset so much worry about backspace...keep it the same as stock (4.5) so that your brakes dont rub.

Never use wheel spacers as it often creates vibrations that can't be balanced out.

Your lefts and rights are the same .........if they were not the truck would pull to one side.

Check out Jegs.......Ion Alloy model 138........8x6.5" bolt pattern with 4.25 back space.

here are to sites to check out...
