Not to sound like a idiot but i was looking at some wheels in a catalog and it has 2N+3B or 4B+2N or4B+6N besides the wheel size.I figure its somethin to do with offset but i cant figure out how to read it.Can someone explain this to me.

B=bell
N= nose

That is the off set on the wheels!

Sorry Jeff, can you explain it a little more for me? I never heard of "bell" and "nose" referencing wheels.

The nose is the shallow side of the wheel and the bell is the deep side of the wheel.
