At this point I'm more trying to get a grasp on how the offsets are calculated. How does the extra .5 of an inch on the 10.5" rim equate to the offset of a wheel? Does it add so the offset would become ET31 or subtract ET 21. The numbers are probably even wrong. I'm going back to learning Latin, I swear its easier!

The calculator works, but it doesn't really calculate the offset, just how a wheel fits on a car compared to another wheel.
Remember, the offset is just the distance from the hub to the middle of the wheel. So the width doesn't have anything to do with the offset itself.
But if you what a 10" ET34 wheel to fit (outside edge of the wheels at the same position) like a 10.5" wheel, then you have to push the 10.5 wheel in by a 1/4" (6mm). The offset needed on the 10.5 wheel will be ET34 +6mm = ET40.
Any more clear?
