0 offset would mean that the mounting surface of the wheel that touches the hub is exactly in the center of the wheel - not any closer to inside than outside.

4.5 backspacing, means that it is 4.5" from inside lip of the wheel to the mounting surface that mates to the hub.

So in this case, since the backspacing is 4.5", and the offset is exactly at 0" which is dead center in the wheel, I quickly deduce that the wheel is 9" wide!

Here is a good diagram of the terms you are asking about http://www. customtacos.com/tech/index.php?article=40
Sorry about my April Fool's comment above... your original question was asking about tons of different things in one sentence, and I wasn't sure if I was missing something.

He didnt say it had 4.50 back spacing, just asked if 0 offset meant it had 4.50 back spacing, What wheel are you looking at? I would call the vendor and get all the specs
