Default Magnesium Wheels

Anyone know what the offset on the optional magnesium wheel is? Does anyone have a document listing the exact specs of various c5 wheels? :nopity

I'm pretty sure that they are the exact same as the standard C5 wheels (they're both the same size)...just not sure off hand what the offset or backspacing is on the standard wheels LOL.
