If I was to buy the 12g cdh rims like GW has is there anyway possible I could get one of these products so that it will offset the chain alignment with the engine? I don't know how to re dish the rims like GW did. I did some measuring and if I get those rims and use the disc brake mount for a 36 tooth sprocket it will set to far out by almost half a inch or less. Seems like if I get one of these with it it will offset it enough so the chain would be in line with the engine sprocket. Any opinions on this? I don't really wanna get the bike berry ones....

How deep does that offset go? If you know I can measure and make sure it will fit as soon as I get to Kentucky.
 
It's hard to tell but if your standing behind the bike and look, the sprocket that I have mounted on the disc brake holes are sitting out to far to the left. I would say at least almost 1 inch.

1 inch between the sprocket and engine sprocket
 
Does this help

Ok GW I'm gonna go ahead and purchase the same rims you have and just try to re dish them like you did. Loosin the left side 2 turns then tighten the other side 2 turns. Will you please guide me when I get them? I'll probably also get the 36 tooth sprocket too.
