Default Calculating Offset And Wheel Specs - Urgent and Need help please

Sup honda tech, Ive recently picked up a new GSR. I unfortunately made some dumb moves and ended up now with a cracked wheel. I only want to replace one, as these rims are going to be a pain to find. My teggy has a 5 lug swap, and the only 5 lug enkei 92s I can find online are 15x7 +38. The 15x7 sounds about right as I measured ( roughly ) the rim the right way, and it came out to about 7. The only problem is the offset. Do you guys think that these are a + 38 offset?? I tried to take as many pics as possible, and uploaded any kind of badging on the back of the wheel that I could find. The only other thing it says on the back hub is MOLD 2 but I know that means nothing. Please help me out as my car has been off the road long enough and i need to get to school and work. thanks in advance

They usually have the offset stamped on back of the spokes. Measure the backspacing and let us know. What size tire is that? To me they seem a little more aggressive than +38.

If you have a 15x7 rim with a 4.4 backspacing then the offset is +25 like I suspected.

Konig and American racing both made rep of enkei 92's.
