Measure from the inside of the mounting surface of the wheel to the outside of the inside half of the rim.

MRT shows a diagram on their web page: http://www.mrtrockcrawlers.com/offset01.html

I've just put a flat edge across the outermost surface of the wheel and measured down to the mounting surface. One of your five ways, I'm sure
