im probably going to get flamed, but as they say, being flamed is part of learning. im looking at wheels and the sizing and this stuff is greek to me. what is the difference between:
4x114+35, or 4x110+42, or 4x114+42? how can you tell whats going to fit within the wheel wells? thanks in advance.

 

4 x 114.3 is the bolt PCD. that determines if the wheels will fit on the hubs.

17x9.5 is the size of the wheel itself, 17 being the radius (diameter?) and 9.5 being the width.

+10 if the offset. lower is better, negative is even better.
