Found the wheels I want, but I have a question

Ok so I found the wheels that I want to get but they come in 3 different options. Everything is identical except the offset.

I can get them in -13.00mm,0.00mm, and +6.00mm[

Now Im trying to understand what the heck offset means. The distance from the centerline of the wheel to where the wheel meets the hub. so does that mean with the 0.00mm offset the centerline of the wheel is lined up with where the wheel meets the hub, and with the +6.00mm, the centerline of the wheel is 6mm to the outside of the truck away from where the wheel meets the hub. I.E. the +6.00mm will give a wider stance than the 0.00mm and the -13.00 will give a narrower stance?

Is this right or am i backwards here? Hope I made sence.


Also, they have 4" backspacing. Is that bad or good?

And last but not least, what thread are our studs for the lug nuts?
