each wobble bolt gives you about 2.4mm of movement

but unfortunatly that doesnt work out to 9.6mm, as its a point circle diameter

ET is a figure for the offset of the wheel. its based on the backspacing of the wheel in relation to the centreline of the wheel.

say for example, 8inch wide wheel = 202mm(for round numbers) so the centre is 101. and then you measure the back spacing, which for example is 85mm. that would make the wheel ET16 if the back spacing is higher than the centre line figure, say 110 thats when your into -ET figures so that would be ET-9

basically, the lower the ET the further out the wheel will sit out in the arch.
