Its basically the same thing as back space but its stated a different way. Both back space and offset tell you how far in or out your wheels will sit.

Wheel offset

What is the offset on most superduty factory rims, are they almost all the same or do they vary from year to year / style of rim / size, etc

The offset will vary based on the year and model. The factory offset for your 2008 should be +45mm
